Step 2. Create association of NAVIGON MobileNavigator Europe with FRESHCONTACT files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FRESHCONTACT file to open in the NAVIGON MobileNavigator Europe application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 FRESHCONTACT file with the NAVIGON MobileNavigator Europe application.

The fault may also lie with the NAVIGON MobileNavigator Europe program, it is possible that NAVIGON MobileNavigator Navigation requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the NAVIGON AG page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FRESHCONTACT file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FRESHCONTACT file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 FRESHCONTACT file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FRESHCONTACT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FRESHCONTACT 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FRESHCONTACT files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting NAVIGON AG, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FRESHCONTACT 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move FRESHCONTACT to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the FRESHCONTACT 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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
