Step 2. Create association of Turbo Assembler with TSM files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TSM file still does not use the Turbo Assembler program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TSM file with the Turbo Assembler application.

Step 3. Update Turbo Assembler to the latest version

If, however, after binding Turbo Assembler with Turbo Assembler For OS/2 Manual Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Micro Focus International plc website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TSM file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TSM file. 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TSM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TSM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TSM 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TSM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Micro Focus International plc, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file TSM 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the TSM file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TSM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
