Remember to download programs supporting RM3D files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RiskMetrics RiskManager with RM3D files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the RM3D file to open in the RiskMetrics RiskManager application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RM3D file with the RiskMetrics RiskManager application.

Step 3. Update RiskMetrics RiskManager to the latest version

If, despite the association of the RiskMetrics RiskManager program with the RiskMetrics RiskManager file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the MSCI Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RM3D file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RM3D file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RM3D file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RM3D files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RM3D file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RM3D files. You can restore the file from a backup or use MSCI Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RM3D files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the RM3D file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RM3D file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
