How to open SQLITEDB-SHM file?
The most common problem when using SQLite Database Shared Memory is that a specific SQLITEDB-SHM is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open SQLITEDB-SHM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SQLITEDB-SHM 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 SQLite
The first step is to check if the computer has the SQLite program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SQLite in it. 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 SQLITEDB-SHM files.
Programs to open SQLITEDB-SHM file
Remember to download programs supporting SQLITEDB-SHM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SQLite with SQLITEDB-SHM files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SQLITEDB-SHM file to open in the SQLite application, but you can set it manually. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SQLITEDB-SHM file with the SQLite application.
Step 3. Update SQLite to the latest version
If, however, after binding SQLite with SQLite Database Shared Memory there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the SQLite Development Team website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SQLITEDB-SHM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SQLITEDB-SHM file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SQLITEDB-SHM or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected SQLITEDB-SHM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SQLITEDB-SHM 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SQLITEDB-SHM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SQLite Development Team, 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 SQLITEDB-SHM 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move SQLITEDB-SHM to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the SQLITEDB-SHM 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 SQLITEDB-SHM to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SQLITEDB-SHM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
