How to open RTH file?
An often recurring problem with ANSYS Results is that RTH is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open RTH, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RTH 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 ANSYS DesignModeler
The first step is to check if the computer has the ANSYS DesignModeler program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ANSYS DesignModeler 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 RTH files.
Programs to open RTH file
Remember to download programs supporting RTH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ANSYS DesignModeler with RTH files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RTH file still does not use the ANSYS DesignModeler program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ANSYS DesignModeler application as the default for handling the RTH file.
Step 3. Update ANSYS DesignModeler to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ANSYS DesignModeler program, it is possible that ANSYS Results requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the ANSYS Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RTH file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to RTH 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. 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 RTH or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected RTH 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 RTH 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RTH file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact ANSYS Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RTH 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 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. Copying the RTH file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
