How to open WHM file?

An often recurring problem with Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War Model is that WHM is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open WHM, 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 WHM 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 Mudflap

The first step is to check if the computer has the Mudflap program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mudflap in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file WHM.

Programs to open WHM file

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

Step 2. Create association of Mudflap with WHM files

If, despite the installed application, the WHM file does not start in the Mudflap application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 WHM file with the Mudflap program.

Step 3. Update Mudflap to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Mudflap program, it is possible that Warhammer 40,000: Dawn Of War Model requires a newer version of the program.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The WHM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to WHM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WHM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WHM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WHM files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WHM file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WHM 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. It is best to move WHM to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WHM file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WHM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
