The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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.

If, despite the association of the BfMeshView program with the Battlefield Skinned Mesh file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SKINNEDMESH or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SKINNEDMESH files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SKINNEDMESH file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Electronic Arts, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SKINNEDMESH 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move SKINNEDMESH to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SKINNEDMESH to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SKINNEDMESH file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
