The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RSB 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 PaintShop Pro
In this case, you should first verify that the PaintShop Pro application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PaintShop Pro in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support RSB files.
Programs to open RSB file
Remember to download programs supporting RSB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PaintShop Pro with RSB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the RSB file to open in the PaintShop Pro application, but you can set it manually. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RSB file with the PaintShop Pro application.
Step 3. Update PaintShop Pro to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PaintShop Pro program, it is possible that Red Storm Bitmap Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RSB file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RSB file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RSB file. However, remember that not every infected RSB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RSB 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RSB file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RSB 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the RSB file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the RSB file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
