How to open SUBLIME-PROJECT file?

The main problem with Sublime Text Project Format is that the SUBLIME-PROJECT file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SUBLIME-PROJECT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SUBLIME-PROJECT 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 Sublime Text

In this case, you should first verify that the Sublime Text application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Sublime Text 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 SUBLIME-PROJECT with Sublime Text. Below is a list of programs that support the file SUBLIME-PROJECT.

Programs to open SUBLIME-PROJECT file

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

Step 2. Create association of Sublime Text with SUBLIME-PROJECT files

If, despite the installed application, the SUBLIME-PROJECT file does not start in the Sublime Text application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Sublime Text application as the default for handling the SUBLIME-PROJECT file.

Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Sublime Text program with the Sublime Text Project Format 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 Sublime HQ Pty Ltd website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SUBLIME-PROJECT file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The SUBLIME-PROJECT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SUBLIME-PROJECT file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SUBLIME-PROJECT file. However, remember that not every infected SUBLIME-PROJECT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SUBLIME-PROJECT file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 SUBLIME-PROJECT files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Jon Skinner, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SUBLIME-PROJECT 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the SUBLIME-PROJECT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SUBLIME-PROJECT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SUBLIME-PROJECT file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
