How to open FX3 file?
An often recurring problem with Fugawi Map is that FX3 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open FX3, 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 FX3 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 Fugawi Global Navigator
The first step is to check if the computer has the Fugawi Global Navigator program installed. To do this, enter the name Fugawi Global Navigator into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file FX3.
Programs to open FX3 file
Remember to download programs supporting FX3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Fugawi Global Navigator with FX3 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FX3 file still does not use the Fugawi Global Navigator program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FX3 file with the Fugawi Global Navigator application.
Step 3. Update Fugawi Global Navigator to the latest version
If, however, after binding Fugawi Global Navigator with Fugawi Map there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Northport Systems Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FX3 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FX3 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FX3 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected FX3 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FX3 file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FX3 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Northport Systems Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FX3 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the FX3 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FX3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FX3 to close. However, some background programs may block the FX3 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
