How to open TOTALSBACKUP file?
An often recurring problem with Totals Database Backup Format is that TOTALSBACKUP is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that TOTALSBACKUP 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 TOTALSBACKUP 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 Totals
The first step is to check if the computer has the Totals program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Totals in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file TOTALSBACKUP.
Programs to open TOTALSBACKUP file
Remember to download programs supporting TOTALSBACKUP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Totals with TOTALSBACKUP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TOTALSBACKUP file still does not use the Totals program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. 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 Totals application as the default for handling the TOTALSBACKUP file.
Step 3. Update Totals to the latest version
If, however, after binding Totals with Totals Database Backup Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Kedisoft website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TOTALSBACKUP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The TOTALSBACKUP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the TOTALSBACKUP file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TOTALSBACKUP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected TOTALSBACKUP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TOTALSBACKUP 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TOTALSBACKUP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Kedisoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TOTALSBACKUP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the TOTALSBACKUP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TOTALSBACKUP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TOTALSBACKUP file again. However, some background programs may block the TOTALSBACKUP file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
