How to open TMH file?
The main problem with Trace Message Header is that the TMH file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that TMH 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 TMH 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 Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit is installed on the computer.

Programs to open TMH file
Remember to download programs supporting TMH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit with TMH files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TMH file to open in the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 TMH file with the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit program with the Trace Message Header file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TMH 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TMH file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TMH file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TMH files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TMH file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 TMH file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TMH 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. It is best to move TMH to a different directory.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
