FileFixer fixes corrupt MicroStation
files totally automatically! Repairing a MicroStation
file with FileFixer requires nothing more
than typing in (or double-clicking on) the name
of the damaged file.
Since 1987, FileFixer has been
recognized the world over as the easiest, fastest
and most reliable solution to handling any kind
of MicroStation design file corruption. Using FileFixer
ensures that your design files end up with the results
you expect when you translate them, migrate them
to XM or plot them. No other automatic preventive
or curative solution exists for MicroStation.
Do you ever have…
- Design files that can’t be opened?
- Design files that translate incorrectly to other formats (like AutoCAD)?
- Elements you can’t select or delete?
- Elements that behave oddly when you zoom in on them?
- MicroStation elements that don’t plot the way you expect them to?
- Add-in MDL applications that just don’t seem to work right?
If you answered “yes” to
any of these questions, then MicroStation file corruption
is costing your company money. Every instance of
every one of the symptoms listed above costs your
organization money. Putting an objective dollar
value on those costs shows that nearly all MicroStation
sites, even fairly small ones, are losing tens of
thousands of dollars a year due to hidden design
file corruption.
Did you know…
- That some kinds of design file corruption can remain hidden for years?
- That hidden corruptions can make a design file prone to future corruptions?
- That the design file you restore from tape might contain hidden problemsthat causes it to get corrupted again and again.

With FileFixer
any MicroStation user can repair damaged design
files without waiting and without wasting anyone
else’s time. |
What are damaged XM files
costing you?
Consider a design file
that took 200 man-hours to create. If that design
file and its backups have a hidden corruption that
made it unusable, how much money would that cost
your organization? To find out, just fill in the
fields below on our CORRUPTION CALCULATOR!
File corruption may be
costing you tens of thousands of dollars per year.
But it’s not just money you’re losing.
MicroStation file corruption:
- Frustrates you and your users.
- Throws your schedule off in ways that are impossible to predict.
- Makes you and your users redo work that you’ve already completed.
- Prevents you from getting more important work done.
- Forces you to stay late at the office in order to get your work done.
Thoroughness
FileFixer repairs corruptions that EdG won’t touch. For example, if a corruption leaves recoverable elements
in a design file on an odd-byte boundary, EdG will never recover those elements because it doesn’t
even look for elements on odd-byte boundaries. FileFixer repairs such design files totally automatically.
Without FileFixer, such design files would remain unrecoverable forever.
Examples of other things FileFixer
can do that EdG can’t
- Replace design file header
elements when EdG can’t. For example, let’s
say the first few blocks of your design file
are destroyed. This is common. FileFixer
can automatically give your design file new
type 9, 8 and 10 elements and connect these
elements to the recoverable elements in your
file. EdG can’t.
- Correct text element range,
a vital type of repair. FileFixer can.
EdG can’t.
- Detect corruption before
it happens. FileFixer can easily be set
up to regularly scan all your design files looking
for minor corruptions that could become serious.
You have complete control over which types of
errors are automatically reported and which
aren’t. EdG can’t do this.
Gain total control of
the file repair process
FileFixer’s
intelligently selected defaults fix most MicroStation
files without user intervention. Nonetheless, when
you need greater control of the file repair process,
FileFixer gives you a way to control virtually
every aspect of the process.

Migration-to-XM
problems
A huge issue that faces almost every MicroStation
shop is the migration of MicroStation version 7
and earlier design files to the new MicroStation
XM format. This migration is in fact a translation
of one file format to a completely new format and
suffers from the exact same liabilities, mentioned
above, that any translator experiences when translating
corrupt data. Simply running FileFixer on
your V7 files prior to migration to XM will save
you a lot of confusion and aggravation.
How much is FileFixer
worth?
The average company pays
$50,000 to $75,000 per year to keep a typical MicroStation
expert on the payroll. Yet FileFixer can
do the same job better for a tiny fraction of that
price!
