How to open DJ file?
The most common problem when using DJGPP Docs is that a specific DJ is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that DJ 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 DJ 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 djgpp
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that djgpp is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name djgpp in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DJ with djgpp. Below you will find a list of applications that support DJ files.
Programs to open DJ file
Remember to download programs supporting DJ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of djgpp with DJ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DJ file to open in the djgpp 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 djgpp application as the default for handling the DJ file.
Step 3. Update djgpp to the latest version
If, despite the association of the djgpp program with the DJGPP Docs file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Delorie Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DJ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the DJ file contents when downloading or copying. 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 DJ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DJ 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 DJ 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair DJ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Delorie Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DJ 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the DJ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DJ to close. However, some background programs may block the DJ file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
