Programs to open RMAP file
Remember to download programs supporting RMAP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CompeGPS Land with RMAP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the RMAP file to open in the CompeGPS Land application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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.

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the CompeGPS TEAM S.L. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RMAP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The RMAP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RMAP 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RMAP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RMAP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RMAP files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RMAP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use CompeGPS TEAM S.L. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RMAP 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the RMAP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the RMAP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RMAP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RMAP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
