How to open NPPS file?

An often recurring problem with Navicat For PostgreSQL Structure Synchronization Format is that NPPS is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that NPPS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NPPS 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 Navicat for PostgreSQL

In this case, you should first verify that the Navicat for PostgreSQL application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Navicat for PostgreSQL into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support NPPS files.

Step 2. Create association of Navicat for PostgreSQL with NPPS files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NPPS file still does not use the Navicat for PostgreSQL program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NPPS file with the Navicat for PostgreSQL application.

Step 3. Update Navicat for PostgreSQL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Navicat for PostgreSQL program with the Navicat For PostgreSQL Structure Synchronization Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PremiumSoft CyberTech Ltd. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NPPS file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NPPS file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the NPPS file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected NPPS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NPPS file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NPPS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NPPS except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the NPPS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the NPPS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NPPS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
