How to open RS_ file?

The main problem with Macintosh Resource Fork is that the RS_ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that RS_ 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 RS_ 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 Mac OS X

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Mac OS X is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mac OS X in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RS_ with Mac OS X. Below is a list of programs that support the file RS_.

Programs to open RS_ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with RS_ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the RS_ file to open in the Mac OS X application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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 Mac OS X application as the default for handling the RS_ file.

Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version

If, however, after binding Mac OS X with Macintosh Resource Fork there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Apple, Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RS_ 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RS_ file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RS_ or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected RS_ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RS_ 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RS_ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RS_ 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. If possible, you can try to move the RS_ file to another location.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RS_ to close. However, some background programs may block the RS_ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
