How to open SUBLIME-SYNTAX file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SUBLIME-SYNTAX 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

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

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SUBLIME-SYNTAX file still does not use the Sublime Text program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SUBLIME-SYNTAX file with the Sublime Text program.

Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version

If, however, after binding Sublime Text with Sublime Text Syntax Definition Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Sublime HQ Pty Ltd website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to SUBLIME-SYNTAX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SUBLIME-SYNTAX or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SUBLIME-SYNTAX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SUBLIME-SYNTAX file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SUBLIME-SYNTAX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file SUBLIME-SYNTAX 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SUBLIME-SYNTAX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SUBLIME-SYNTAX file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
