9 steps to open AMA file
The following recommendations and steps will help you open the ArcGIS ArcMap file in case you cannot do it in the standard way:
- Make sure that the operating system where you are trying to open the ArcGIS ArcMap file is supported by it. It may turn out that AMA files are not compatible with your system.
- Check if the ArcReader or ArcGIS Desktop program is installed in the system. If there is no application that supports files with the extension AMA, it should be downloaded and installed on the system.
- Check if files with the extension AMA are associated with the application ArcReader or one of the programs such as ArcGIS Desktop. If this is not the case, you should manually set the program, preferably by editing the properties of the ArcGIS ArcMap file and displaying the applications available on the system that allow you to open it. The system will display a window with applications to choose from, from which you should select one of the ArcReader, ArcGIS Desktop programs.
Software programs that open AMA file extension
- If the ArcGIS ArcMap file has been downloaded from the Internet or copied from another medium, it may be corrupt. In this case, the ArcReader, ArcGIS Desktop programs will not be able to open the ArcGIS ArcMap file despite their presence in the system. Re-downloading or copying the file may fix the problem.
- The antivirus program can identify the virus with which the ArcGIS ArcMap file has been infected and at the same time blocks the opening of the file. The best solution in this case is to run a virus scanner and check the system for viruses.
- The ArcGIS ArcMap file may be saved in a way that is no longer supported. Sometimes it happens that despite the AMA extension, such files contain data saved in a way that prevents them from being opened by ArcReader or ArcGIS Desktop.
- An attempt to open the ArcGIS ArcMap file by an un-updated application may fail. Determine the version of your program and, if necessary, install the latest one.
- Sometimes the user unknowingly tries to open a file with a shortcut that points to a place where the file is no longer there (it may have been previously deleted).
- The inability to open the ArcGIS ArcMap file may be due to restrictions imposed on the user by the system administrator.
