How to open DOO file?
An often recurring problem with Atari Doodle Image is that DOO is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that DOO 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 DOO 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 XnView
In this case, you should first verify that the XnView application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name XnView into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DOO with XnView. Below you will find a list of applications that support DOO files.
Programs to open DOO file
Remember to download programs supporting DOO files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of XnView with DOO files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DOO file to open in the XnView 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 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 select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DOO file with the XnView application.
Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version
If, however, after binding XnView with Atari Doodle Image there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DOO file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The DOO file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the DOO file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DOO file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DOO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of DOO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DOO file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 DOO 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DOO to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the DOO file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DOO to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DOO file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
