How to open GRI file?

The main problem with Petrosys Grid is that the GRI file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that GRI files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GRI 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 Petrosys

In this case, you should first verify that the Petrosys application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Petrosys into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file GRI.

Programs to open GRI file

Remember to download programs supporting GRI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Petrosys with GRI files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GRI file still does not use the Petrosys program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GRI file with the Petrosys program.

Step 3. Update Petrosys to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Petrosys program with the Petrosys Grid file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Petrosys Pty Ltd page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GRI 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GRI or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GRI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of GRI 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GRI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Petrosys Pty Ltd, 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 GRI 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 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. If possible, you can try to move the GRI file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GRI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GRI to close. 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.
