How to open CNX file?

The main problem with Pegasus Mail is that the CNX file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open CNX, 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 CNX 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 Pegasus Mail

The first step is to check if the computer has the Pegasus Mail program installed. This can be achieved by typing Pegasus Mail into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support CNX files.

Programs to open CNX file

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

Step 2. Create association of Pegasus Mail with CNX files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CNX file still does not use the Pegasus Mail program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the CNX file with the Pegasus Mail application.

Step 3. Update Pegasus Mail to the latest version

If, however, after binding Pegasus Mail with Pegasus Mail 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 David Harris page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CNX 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. This suggests truncating the CNX file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 CNX file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CNX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the CNX files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CNX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact David Harris
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file CNX 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CNX to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CNX to close. 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.
