What is STBOM file?

The file in the STBOM format belongs to the 3D Image Files category. It was designed by Dassault Systèmes S.A.. 3D Image Files consists of 622 similar files. CATIA Stbom is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use CATIA to handle this file. This is a program created by Dassault Syst?mes S.A..

How to open STBOM file?

An often recurring problem with CATIA Stbom is that STBOM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open STBOM, 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 STBOM 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 CATIA

The first step is to check if the computer has the CATIA program installed. This can be achieved by typing CATIA into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file STBOM with CATIA. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open STBOM files.

Programs to open STBOM file

Remember to download programs supporting STBOM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of CATIA with STBOM files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the STBOM file to open in the CATIA application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 CATIA application as the default for handling the STBOM file.

Step 3. Update CATIA to the latest version

If, despite the association of the CATIA program with the CATIA Stbom 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 Dassault Syst?mes S.A. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the STBOM 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 suggests truncating the STBOM file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 STBOM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover STBOM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of STBOM 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged STBOM files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Dassault Systèmes S.A.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file STBOM 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. It is best to move STBOM to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the STBOM 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 STBOM to close. However, some background programs may block the STBOM file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
