How to open UMD file?

The most common problem when using UMD Mobile Ebook is that a specific UMD is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that UMD files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UMD 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 jumd

In this case, you should first verify that the jumd application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name jumd into the system search engine. 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 UMD files.

Programs to open UMD file

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

Step 2. Create association of jumd with UMD files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UMD file still does not use the jumd program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the UMD file with the jumd program.

Step 3. Update jumd to the latest version

If, despite the association of the jumd program with the UMD Mobile Ebook file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the jumd team page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the UMD file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 UMD file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UMD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of UMD 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged UMD files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact jumd team
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted UMD files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the UMD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the UMD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UMD file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UMD file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
