How to open FNW file?
An often recurring problem with FLARENET Model Data Format is that FNW is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file FNW to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FNW 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 FLARENET

Programs to open FNW file
Remember to download programs supporting FNW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FLARENET with FNW files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FNW file to open in the FLARENET application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FNW file with the FLARENET program.
Step 3. Update FLARENET to the latest version
If, however, after binding FLARENET with FLARENET Model Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Aspen Technology, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FNW file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FNW file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FNW file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected FNW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FNW file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FNW file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FNW 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FNW to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FNW file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FNW file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
