How to open RPB file?

An often recurring problem with Radmin Phonebook Format is that RPB is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file RPB 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 RPB 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 Radmin

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Radmin is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Radmin into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support RPB files.

Programs to open RPB file

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

Step 2. Create association of Radmin with RPB files

If, despite the installed application, the RPB file does not start in the Radmin application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 RPB file with the Radmin program.

Step 3. Update Radmin to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Radmin program, it is possible that Radmin Phonebook Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Famatech website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The RPB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to RPB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RPB file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RPB 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 RPB 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RPB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Famatech help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RPB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the RPB file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RPB file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
