How to open TMBUNDLE file?

The main problem with TextMate Bundle Format is that the TMBUNDLE file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that TMBUNDLE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TMBUNDLE 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 TextMate

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that TextMate is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TextMate into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support TMBUNDLE files.

Programs to open TMBUNDLE file

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

Step 2. Create association of TextMate with TMBUNDLE files

If, despite the installed application, the TMBUNDLE file does not start in the TextMate 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. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TMBUNDLE file with the TextMate application.

Step 3. Update TextMate to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TextMate program, it is possible that TextMate Bundle Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the MacroMates Ltd. page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the TMBUNDLE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TMBUNDLE file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TMBUNDLE files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TMBUNDLE files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TMBUNDLE file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact MacroMates
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TMBUNDLE 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the TMBUNDLE file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TMBUNDLE file again. However, some background programs may block the TMBUNDLE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
