If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 906 file still does not use the MYRIAD Desktop program, it means no association.

Older version of 906 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 906 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted 906 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the 906 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 906 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 906 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
