How to open FNDR file?
The most common problem when using Xmap For Mac is that a specific FNDR is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open FNDR, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FNDR 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 Xmap
The first step is to check if the computer has the Xmap program installed. This can be achieved by typing Xmap into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FNDR files.
Programs to open FNDR file
Remember to download programs supporting FNDR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Xmap with FNDR files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FNDR file to open in the Xmap 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FNDR file with the Xmap program.
Step 3. Update Xmap to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Xmap program with the Xmap For Mac file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the DeLorme website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FNDR file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The FNDR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FNDR file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FNDR or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FNDR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FNDR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FNDR file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact DeLorme
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FNDR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 FNDR to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FNDR to close. However, some background programs may block the FNDR file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
