How to open TXTR file?
The main problem with The Sims Texture is that the TXTR file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TXTR to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TXTR 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 The Sims
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that The Sims is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name The Sims in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TXTR files.
Programs to open TXTR file
Remember to download programs supporting TXTR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of The Sims with TXTR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TXTR file still does not use the The Sims 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the The Sims application as the default for handling the TXTR file.
Step 3. Update The Sims to the latest version
If, despite the association of the The Sims program with the The Sims Texture file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Electronic Arts, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TXTR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The TXTR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the TXTR file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TXTR file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected TXTR 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 TXTR 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TXTR files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TXTR 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 TXTR to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TXTR to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
