How to open XMLR file?
An often recurring problem with ByteShift Sitescan Result Format is that XMLR is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that XMLR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XMLR 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 SiteScan
The first step is to check if the computer has the SiteScan program installed. This can be achieved by typing SiteScan into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XMLR with SiteScan. Below you will find a list of applications that support XMLR files.
Programs to open XMLR file
Remember to download programs supporting XMLR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SiteScan with XMLR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the XMLR file still does not use the SiteScan program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 XMLR file with the SiteScan program.
Step 3. Update SiteScan to the latest version
If, despite the association of the SiteScan program with the ByteShift Sitescan Result Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the ByteShift website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XMLR 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to XMLR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 XMLR file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XMLR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the XMLR 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XMLR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XMLR 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.
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 XMLR file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the XMLR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the XMLR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
