How to open FR file?
An often recurring problem with French Language Translation is that FR is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open FR, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FR 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 NotePad++ text editor
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that NotePad++ text editor is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing NotePad++ text editor into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FR with NotePad++ text editor. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FR files.
Programs to open FR file
Remember to download programs supporting FR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of NotePad++ text editor with FR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FR file still does not use the NotePad++ text editor program, it means no 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 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 FR file with the NotePad++ text editor application.
Step 3. Update NotePad++ text editor to the latest version
If, despite the association of the NotePad++ text editor program with the French Language Translation file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Notepad++ Team website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FR file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The FR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FR file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FR file. However, remember that not every infected FR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FR file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FR 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.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FR 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 FR to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FR to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FR file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
