What is TSO file?

The TSO file has been categorized as GIS Files. In addition to this file, the GIS Files category includes 255 related files. Tactical Situation Object XML is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use TSO Editor to handle this file. This is a program created by OASIS Project.

How to open TSO file?

An often recurring problem with Tactical Situation Object XML is that TSO is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open TSO, 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 TSO 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 TSO Editor

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that TSO Editor is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name TSO Editor into the system search engine. 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 TSO files.

Programs to open TSO file

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

Step 2. Create association of TSO Editor with TSO files

If, despite the installed application, the TSO file does not start in the TSO Editor application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TSO file with the TSO Editor program.

Step 3. Update TSO Editor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TSO Editor program, it is possible that Tactical Situation Object XML requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the OASIS Project website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TSO 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 TSO file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TSO file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected TSO file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of TSO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TSO file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TSO files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. If possible, you can try to move the TSO 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TSO to close. However, some background programs may block the TSO file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
