How to open TRM file?
The main problem with FTR Media Format is that the TRM file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TRM 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 TRM 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 TheRecord Player
The first step is to check if the computer has the TheRecord Player program installed. To do this, enter the name TheRecord Player into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TRM files.
Programs to open TRM file
Remember to download programs supporting TRM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TheRecord Player with TRM files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TRM file to open in the TheRecord Player 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. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TheRecord Player application as the default for handling the TRM file.
Step 3. Update TheRecord Player to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the TheRecord Player program, it is possible that FTR Media Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the FTR PTY LTD. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TRM 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 TRM file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TRM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TRM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TRM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TRM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact ForTheRecord
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TRM 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the TRM file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. 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.
