The TRJ file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the TRJ files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the TRJ file on each system platform.
What is TRJ file?
The TRJ file has been categorized as Misc Files. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. GROMACS Trajectory Simulation Data Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The main program that supports this format is Gromacs. This was created by Gromacs.
How to open TRJ file?
The main problem with GROMACS Trajectory Simulation Data Format is that the TRJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TRJ 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 TRJ 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 Gromacs
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Gromacs is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Gromacs in it. 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 TRJ files.
Programs to open TRJ file
Remember to download programs supporting TRJ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Gromacs with TRJ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TRJ file to open in the Gromacs application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TRJ file with the Gromacs application.
Step 3. Update Gromacs to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Gromacs program with the GROMACS Trajectory Simulation Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Gromacs website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TRJ file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the TRJ file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 TRJ file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TRJ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TRJ 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 option of recovering data from damaged TRJ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file TRJ 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 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 TRJ file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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.
