How to open IIP file?
The most common problem when using ThinAnywhere Configuration Format is that a specific IIP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that IIP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IIP 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 ThinAnywhere
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ThinAnywhere is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ThinAnywhere 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 IIP with ThinAnywhere. Below is a list of programs that support the file IIP.
Programs to open IIP file
Remember to download programs supporting IIP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ThinAnywhere with IIP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IIP file still does not use the ThinAnywhere program, it means no association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ThinAnywhere application as the default for handling the IIP file.
Step 3. Update ThinAnywhere to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ThinAnywhere program with the ThinAnywhere Configuration Format 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 ThinAnywhere, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IIP 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 IIP file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IIP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover IIP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the IIP files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged IIP files. You can restore the file from a backup or use ThinAnywhere, Inc help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted IIP 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 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 IIP to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IIP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
