How to open TTK file?
The most common problem when using Catalyst Translation Toolkit is that a specific TTK is not associated with the program. This causes the file TTK to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TTK 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 CATALYST
The first step is to check if the computer has the CATALYST program installed. This can be achieved by typing CATALYST into the operating 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 TTK files.
Programs to open TTK file
Remember to download programs supporting TTK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CATALYST with TTK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TTK file still does not use the CATALYST program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 TTK file with the CATALYST application.
Step 3. Update CATALYST to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the CATALYST program, it is possible that Catalyst Translation Toolkit requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Alchemy Software Development Ltd. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TTK 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TTK file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 TTK or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TTK files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TTK 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TTK file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Alchemy Software Development help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TTK 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the TTK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TTK file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TTK file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
