How to open TRI file?

The main problem with FaceGen Polygonal Model Format is that the TRI file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open TRI, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TRI 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 FaceGen Modeller

The first step is to check if the computer has the FaceGen Modeller program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name FaceGen Modeller 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 TRI.

Programs to open TRI file

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

Step 2. Create association of FaceGen Modeller with TRI files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TRI file to open in the FaceGen Modeller application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TRI file with the FaceGen Modeller application.

Step 3. Update FaceGen Modeller to the latest version

If, despite the association of the FaceGen Modeller program with the FaceGen Polygonal Model Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TRI 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 TRI 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TRI file. Sometimes virus-infected TRI files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TRI file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TRI file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TRI 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. Copying the TRI file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the TRI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TRI file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
