How to open TTXT file?

An often recurring problem with MPEG-4 Timed Text Subtitles Format is that TTXT is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that TTXT files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TTXT 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 Text editor

In this case, you should first verify that the Text editor application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Text editor in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support TTXT files.

Programs to open TTXT file

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

Step 2. Create association of Text editor with TTXT files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TTXT file still does not use the Text editor program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 TTXT file with the Text editor application.

Step 3. Update Text editor to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Text editor program with the MPEG-4 Timed Text Subtitles Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TTXT 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TTXT file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TTXT file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected TTXT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TTXT file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TTXT files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TTXT 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. It is best to move TTXT to a different directory.
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. 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.
