How to open RMG file?

The main problem with Rimage Image is that the RMG file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that RMG files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RMG file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install IsoBuster

In this case, you should first verify that the IsoBuster application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name IsoBuster into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open RMG files.

Programs to open RMG file

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

Step 2. Create association of IsoBuster with RMG files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RMG file still does not use the IsoBuster program, it means no association. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RMG file with the IsoBuster program.

Step 3. Update IsoBuster to the latest version

If, despite the association of the IsoBuster program with the Rimage Image file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Smart Projects page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RMG file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RMG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected RMG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of RMG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RMG files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RMG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RMG to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RMG to close. However, some background programs may block the RMG file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
