What is 86I file?

The file with the extension 86I is the Graphic Files file type. Additionally, the Graphic Files category contains 524 of other files. TI Bitmap appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use XnView to handle this file. This is a program created by Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet.

How to open 86I file?

The most common problem when using TI Bitmap is that a specific 86I is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that 86I files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 86I 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 XnView

The first step is to check if the computer has the XnView program installed. This can be achieved by typing XnView into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 86I files.

Programs to open 86I file

Remember to download programs supporting 86I files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of XnView with 86I files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 86I file still does not use the XnView 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the 86I file with the XnView program.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

If, despite the association of the XnView program with the TI Bitmap file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 86I file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 86I file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 86I or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected 86I 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 86I 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged 86I files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file 86I 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the 86I file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the 86I file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 86I file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
