How to open TGMD file?
The main problem with ThumbGen Movie Metadata is that the TGMD file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TGMD to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TGMD 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 ThumbGen
The first step is to check if the computer has the ThumbGen program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ThumbGen in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file TGMD with ThumbGen. Below you will find a list of applications that support TGMD files.
Programs to open TGMD file
Remember to download programs supporting TGMD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ThumbGen with TGMD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TGMD file still does not use the ThumbGen program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TGMD file with the ThumbGen program.
Step 3. Update ThumbGen to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ThumbGen program, it is possible that ThumbGen Movie Metadata requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the yougrids website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TGMD 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 TGMD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TGMD file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TGMD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TGMD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TGMD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use yougrids help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TGMD 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. Copying the TGMD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TGMD 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 TGMD to close. However, some background programs may block the TGMD file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
