What is a HTM file?
Files with the .HTM extension contain source code for websites, written in HTML – Hypertext Markup Language. It is a string of markers that format the text and images displayed on the website in a browser. The file is saved as plain text, and so it can be viewed using any text editor.
The .HTM extension is equivalent to the .HTML extension, it is, however, less popular. It is used by website project builder software from the Microsoft family – namely Front Page, Share Point Designer, and Expression Web.

If you cannot open the HTM file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports HTM among those that are installed on your device.
A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the HTM file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.

Possible problems with the HTM format files
The inability to open and operate the HTM file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the HTML Hypertext Markup Language Web Page Format file. Below is a list of possible problems.
- Corruption of a HTM file which is being opened
- Incorrect links to the HTM file in registry entries.
- Accidental deletion of the description of the HTM from the Windows registry
- Incomplete installation of an application that supports the HTM format
- The HTM file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
- The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the HTM file.
- Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a HTM file are out of date.
If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the HTM file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the HTM file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the HTM file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

How to associate the file with an installed software?
If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.HTM) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected HTM file. From the drop-down menu select 'Choose default program', then click 'Browse' and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the HTM file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.

How To Open Htm File On Mac
Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. HTM) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.
