Programs to open AIU file

Step 2. Create association of Caphyon Advanced Installer with AIU files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the AIU file to open in the Caphyon Advanced Installer 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Caphyon Advanced Installer application as the default for handling the AIU file.
Step 3. Update Caphyon Advanced Installer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Caphyon Advanced Installer program, it is possible that Advanced Installer Updates Configuration Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AIU 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to AIU 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. 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 AIU file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AIU files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the AIU file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AIU files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AIU 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the AIU file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
