How to open GNOTE file?
The most common problem when using Google Keep Note Format is that a specific GNOTE is not associated with the program. This causes the file GNOTE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GNOTE 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 Google Keep
In this case, you should first verify that the Google Keep application is installed on the computer.

Programs to open GNOTE file

Step 2. Create association of Google Keep with GNOTE files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GNOTE file to open in the Google Keep 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the GNOTE file with the Google Keep application.
Step 3. Update Google Keep to the latest version
If, however, after binding Google Keep with Google Keep Note Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Google Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GNOTE file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the GNOTE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GNOTE file. Sometimes virus-infected GNOTE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GNOTE file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged GNOTE files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GNOTE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move GNOTE 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GNOTE to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GNOTE file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
