What is SHOW file?
The file in the SHOW format belongs to the Data Files category. It was designed by Hancom. Additionally, the Data Files category contains 1326 of other files. Hanshow Presentation is supported by 3 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on iOS, Linux, Windows. It is recommended to use Hancom Office to handle this file. This is a program created by Hancom Inc.. There are also 2 alternative programs to handle the SHOW file. You can use Hancom Office Viewer in case Hancom Office cannot be used.
How to open SHOW file?
The most common problem when using Hanshow Presentation is that a specific SHOW is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that SHOW files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SHOW 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 Hancom Office
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Hancom Office is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Hancom Office in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SHOW files.
Programs to open SHOW file
Remember to download programs supporting SHOW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Hancom Office with SHOW files
If, despite the installed application, the SHOW file does not start in the Hancom Office application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Hancom Office application as the default for handling the SHOW file.
Step 3. Update Hancom Office to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Hancom Office program with the Hanshow Presentation file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Hancom Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SHOW file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SHOW file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SHOW or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SHOW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SHOW files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SHOW file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Hancom help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SHOW 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SHOW to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SHOW file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SHOW to close. However, some background programs may block the SHOW file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
