How to open FPSX file?
The most common problem when using Nokia Firmware Format is that a specific FPSX is not associated with the program. This causes the file FPSX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FPSX 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 Nokia Suite
In this case, you should first verify that the Nokia Suite application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Nokia Suite 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 FPSX files.
Programs to open FPSX file
Remember to download programs supporting FPSX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Nokia Suite with FPSX files
If, despite the installed application, the FPSX file does not start in the Nokia Suite application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FPSX file with the Nokia Suite program.
Step 3. Update Nokia Suite to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Nokia Suite program with the Nokia Firmware Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Nokia Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FPSX 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. Usually this applies to FPSX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FPSX or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FPSX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FPSX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FPSX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Nokia, 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 FPSX 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FPSX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FPSX to close. However, some background programs may block the FPSX file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
