The SERVER file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the SERVER files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the SERVER file on each system platform.
What is SERVER file?
The file in the SERVER format belongs to the Misc Files category. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. Bonobo Activation API appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Linux. It is recommended to use Gnome Desktop to handle this file. This is a program created by The GNOME Project.
How to open SERVER file?
The main problem with Bonobo Activation API is that the SERVER file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SERVER, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SERVER 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 Gnome Desktop
The first step is to check if the computer has the Gnome Desktop program installed. This can be achieved by typing Gnome Desktop into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SERVER files.
Programs to open SERVER file
Remember to download programs supporting SERVER files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Gnome Desktop with SERVER files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SERVER file still does not use the Gnome Desktop 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 Gnome Desktop application as the default for handling the SERVER file.
Step 3. Update Gnome Desktop to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Gnome Desktop program with the Bonobo Activation API 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 The GNOME Project website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SERVER 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 SERVER file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SERVER file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SERVER file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SERVER 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 SERVER 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SERVER file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SERVER 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the SERVER file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SERVER 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SERVER file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
