The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the INRS 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 Adobe InDesign
In this case, you should first verify that the Adobe InDesign application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe InDesign in it.

Programs to open INRS file
Remember to download programs supporting INRS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe InDesign with INRS files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the INRS file to open in the Adobe InDesign 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe InDesign application as the default for handling the INRS file.
Step 3. Update Adobe InDesign to the latest version
If, however, after binding Adobe InDesign with Adobe InDesign For Mac 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 Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the INRS file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The INRS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to INRS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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 INRS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected INRS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of INRS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular INRS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems Incorporated help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted INRS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move INRS to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the INRS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file INRS to close. However, some background programs may block the INRS file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
