How to open DNN file?
An often recurring problem with DotNetNuke Manifest is that DNN is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that DNN files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DNN 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 DotNetNuke
In this case, you should first verify that the DotNetNuke application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name DotNetNuke in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DNN with DotNetNuke. Below is a list of programs that support the file DNN.
Programs to open DNN file
Remember to download programs supporting DNN files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DotNetNuke with DNN files
If, despite the installed application, the DNN file does not start in the DotNetNuke application, you must create a file 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DNN file with the DotNetNuke program.
Step 3. Update DotNetNuke to the latest version
If, despite the association of the DotNetNuke program with the DotNetNuke Manifest file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the DotNetNuke Corp. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DNN file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to DNN 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DNN file. Sometimes virus-infected DNN files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DNN file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DNN files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting DotNetNuke Corp., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DNN 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DNN to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DNN to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DNN file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
