The TRU file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the TRU files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the TRU file on each system platform.
What is TRU file?
The TRU file has been categorized as Developer Files. The author of this format is True BASIC. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. True Basic Source appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use True Basic Bronze Edition to handle this file. This is a program created by True BASIC.
How to open TRU file?
The main problem with True Basic Source is that the TRU file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TRU 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 TRU 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 True Basic Bronze Edition
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that True Basic Bronze Edition is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name True Basic Bronze Edition into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file TRU with True Basic Bronze Edition. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TRU files.
Programs to open TRU file
Remember to download programs supporting TRU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of True Basic Bronze Edition with TRU files
If, despite the installed application, the TRU file does not start in the True Basic Bronze Edition application, you must create a file association. 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 select the desired program. 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 True Basic Bronze Edition application as the default for handling the TRU file.
Step 3. Update True Basic Bronze Edition to the latest version
If, despite the association of the True Basic Bronze Edition program with the True Basic Source file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the True BASIC website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TRU 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 TRU file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to TRU files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TRU or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected TRU 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 TRU files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TRU file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact True BASIC
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TRU 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the TRU 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TRU to close. However, some background programs may block the TRU file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
