Step 1. Install MS-DOS
The first step is to check if the computer has the MS-DOS program installed. To do this, enter the name MS-DOS into the system search engine.

Programs to open F16 file
Remember to download programs supporting F16 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MS-DOS with F16 files
If, despite the installed application, the F16 file does not start in the MS-DOS application, you must create a file association. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the F16 file with the MS-DOS application.
Step 3. Update MS-DOS to the latest version
If, however, after binding MS-DOS with DOS Screen Text 16 Pixels Height Font there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the F16 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The F16 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the F16 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the F16 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover F16 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of F16 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular F16 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted F16 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move F16 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the F16 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the F16 file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
