How to open CENON~ file?

The main problem with Cenon Project Backup Format is that the CENON~ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file CENON~ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CENON~ 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 Cenon

In this case, you should first verify that the Cenon application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Cenon into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation.

Programs to open CENON~ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Cenon with CENON~ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CENON~ file still does not use the Cenon program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the CENON~ file with the Cenon program.

Step 3. Update Cenon to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Cenon program, it is possible that Cenon Project Backup Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Cenon page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CENON~ 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to CENON~ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CENON~ file. Sometimes virus-infected CENON~ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the CENON~ 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CENON~ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CENON~ 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. It is best to move CENON~ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CENON~ file again. However, some background programs may block the CENON~ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
