What is TBR file?
The file in the TBR format belongs to the Settings Files category. The creator of this file is JustSystems Corp.. Settings Files consists of 1305 similar files. SoftQuad XMetaL Configuration is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The XMetaL application is recommended to open the file. It was released by JustSystems Corp..
How to open TBR file?
The most common problem when using SoftQuad XMetaL Configuration is that a specific TBR is not associated with the program. This causes the file TBR to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TBR 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 XMetaL
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that XMetaL is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing XMetaL 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 TBR with XMetaL. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TBR files.
Programs to open TBR file
Remember to download programs supporting TBR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of XMetaL with TBR files
If, despite the installed application, the TBR file does not start in the XMetaL application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XMetaL application as the default for handling the TBR file.
Step 3. Update XMetaL to the latest version
If, despite the association of the XMetaL program with the SoftQuad XMetaL Configuration 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 JustSystems Corp. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TBR file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the TBR 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TBR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected TBR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TBR file. 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 ability to automatically repair TBR file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact JustSystems Corp.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file TBR 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move TBR to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TBR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TBR to close. However, some background programs may block the TBR file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
