How to open AYN file?
The main problem with Ayona Music Data Format is that the AYN file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open AYN, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AYN 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 VLC media player
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VLC media player is installed on the computer.

Programs to open AYN file
Remember to download programs supporting AYN files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VLC media player with AYN files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AYN file still does not use the VLC media player program, it means no association. 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 VLC media player application as the default for handling the AYN file.
Step 3. Update VLC media player to the latest version
If, however, after binding VLC media player with Ayona Music Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the VideoLAN Project Team page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AYN file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The AYN file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the AYN file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AYN file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected AYN files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of AYN 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.
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 AYN file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AYN files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the AYN 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AYN file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
