How to open WMB file?
An often recurring problem with 3D GameStudio Map Entity is that WMB is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file WMB to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WMB 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 3D Gamestudio
In this case, you should first verify that the 3D Gamestudio application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name 3D Gamestudio into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file WMB.
Programs to open WMB file
Remember to download programs supporting WMB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 3D Gamestudio with WMB files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WMB file still does not use the 3D Gamestudio 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the 3D Gamestudio application as the default for handling the WMB file.
Step 3. Update 3D Gamestudio to the latest version
If, despite the association of the 3D Gamestudio program with the 3D GameStudio Map Entity 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 Conitec Datasystems, Inc page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WMB file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to WMB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WMB or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WMB 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 WMB files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WMB files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Conitec Datasystems, Inc, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file WMB except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the WMB file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WMB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WMB file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
