How to open RTB file?

The main problem with Rhino 3D Toolbar Collection is that the RTB file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that RTB files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RTB 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 Rhino 3D

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Rhino 3D is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Rhino 3D in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RTB with Rhino 3D. Below you will find a list of applications that support RTB files.

Programs to open RTB file

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

Step 2. Create association of Rhino 3D with RTB files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RTB file still does not use the Rhino 3D program, it means no 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RTB file with the Rhino 3D program.

Step 3. Update Rhino 3D to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Rhino 3D program with the Rhino 3D Toolbar Collection file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Robert McNeel & Associates website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to RTB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RTB file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RTB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RTB file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular RTB file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Robert McNeel & Associates, 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 file RTB except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the RTB file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the RTB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the RTB file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
