How to open IIE file?

The most common problem when using SimIIe Emulator is that a specific IIE is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open IIE, 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 IIE 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 SimSystem IIe emulator

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that SimSystem IIe emulator is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name SimSystem IIe emulator into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open IIE files.

Programs to open IIE file

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

Step 2. Create association of SimSystem IIe emulator with IIE files

If, despite the installed application, the IIE file does not start in the SimSystem IIe emulator application, you must create a file 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the IIE file with the SimSystem IIe emulator program.

Step 3. Update SimSystem IIe emulator to the latest version

If, however, after binding SimSystem IIe emulator with SimIIe Emulator there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Jim Sproul page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IIE 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to IIE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our IIE file. However, remember that not every infected IIE 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 IIE 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.
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 IIE files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted IIE 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.
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 IIE 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the IIE file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IIE file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
