How to open AAUI file?
An often recurring problem with Acrobat User Interface Format is that AAUI is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that AAUI 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 AAUI 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 Adobe Acrobat
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Adobe Acrobat is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe Acrobat in it. 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 AAUI files.
Programs to open AAUI file
Remember to download programs supporting AAUI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe Acrobat with AAUI files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the AAUI file to open in the Adobe Acrobat application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe Acrobat application as the default for handling the AAUI file.
Step 3. Update Adobe Acrobat to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Adobe Acrobat program with the Acrobat User Interface Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Adobe Systems Incorporated website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AAUI file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The AAUI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to AAUI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our AAUI file. Sometimes virus-infected AAUI files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the AAUI file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AAUI files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Adobe Systems
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AAUI 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.
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. It is best to move AAUI to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the AAUI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the AAUI file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
