What is RMW file?
The RMW file has been categorized as Database Files. It was designed by ALD. In addition to this file, the Database Files category includes 403 related files. RAM Commander Database appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use RAM Commander to handle this file. This is a program created by ALD.
How to open RMW file?
The most common problem when using RAM Commander Database is that a specific RMW is not associated with the program. This causes the file RMW 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 RMW 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 RAM Commander
In this case, you should first verify that the RAM Commander application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name RAM Commander into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file RMW.
Programs to open RMW file
Remember to download programs supporting RMW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RAM Commander with RMW files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RMW file still does not use the RAM Commander program, it means no association. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RMW file with the RAM Commander program.
Step 3. Update RAM Commander to the latest version
If, however, after binding RAM Commander with RAM Commander Database there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the ALD page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RMW file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to RMW files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RMW file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RMW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RMW file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular RMW file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ALD, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RMW 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 RMW file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the RMW file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
