What is a .CAMERROR file?
A .CAMERROR file is a type of error file specifically generated by Camtasia Studio, which is a software used for recording screens and editing videos. This file contains information in XML format, which is a way to encode data in a readable format for both humans and machines. The information in a .CAMERROR file includes details about a Camtasia project and any errors that have occurred during its creation or editing.
When Camtasia Studio runs into a problem and the project you are working on hasn't been saved yet, the program automatically creates a .CAMERROR file. This file is saved in the same folder where Camtasia Studio projects are stored. The purpose of this file is to act as a sort of backup. If something goes wrong and the project is not saved properly, you can use the .CAMERROR file to recover your work.
To use a .CAMERROR file as a backup, you need to change its file extension from ".camerror" to ".camproj". By renaming the file extension, the file becomes a Camtasia Project file (.CAMPROJ), which can then be opened normally in Camtasia Studio. This allows you to recover your project and continue working on it.
The primary program that can open and use a .CAMERROR file is TechSmith Camtasia. Since the file is intended for use within this specific software, other programs are unlikely to be able to open or use .CAMERROR files effectively.
