How to open XMO file?

An often recurring problem with Adobe Authorware Movie Driver is that XMO is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open XMO, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XMO 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 Adobe Authorware

The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe Authorware program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe Authorware in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XMO with Adobe Authorware.

Programs to open XMO file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe Authorware with XMO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XMO file to open in the Adobe Authorware application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe Authorware application as the default for handling the XMO file.

Step 3. Update Adobe Authorware to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Adobe Authorware program, it is possible that Adobe Authorware Movie Driver requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XMO file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XMO file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XMO 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 XMO file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XMO file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Adobe Systems Incorporated
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file XMO 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 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. Copying the XMO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the XMO file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
