How to open RMHD file?
An often recurring problem with RealMedia High Definition Video Format is that RMHD is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file RMHD to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RMHD 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 RealPlayer
In this case, you should first verify that the RealPlayer application is installed on the computer.

Programs to open RMHD file
Remember to download programs supporting RMHD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RealPlayer with RMHD files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the RMHD file to open in the RealPlayer 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the RealPlayer application as the default for handling the RMHD file.
Step 3. Update RealPlayer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the RealPlayer program, it is possible that RealMedia High Definition Video Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the RealNetworks, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RMHD file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the RMHD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RMHD file. Sometimes virus-infected RMHD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RMHD file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 RMHD files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RMHD 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RMHD to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RMHD file again. However, some background programs may block the RMHD file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
