How to open STML file?

The main problem with SSI HTML Format is that the STML file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that STML files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the STML 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 Web browser

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Web browser is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Web browser into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file STML with Web browser. Below is a list of programs that support the file STML.

Step 2. Create association of Web browser with STML files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the STML file still does not use the Web browser program, it means no 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 select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the STML file with the Web browser program.

Step 3. Update Web browser to the latest version

If, however, after binding Web browser with SSI HTML Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the STML file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the STML file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 STML or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected STML file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of STML 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 file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged STML files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted STML 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. If possible, you can try to move the STML file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file STML to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
