How to open ITN file?
The most common problem when using TomTom Navigator Itinerary Format is that a specific ITN is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that ITN 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 ITN 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 TomTom HOME
In this case, you should first verify that the TomTom HOME application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name TomTom HOME in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file ITN.
Programs to open ITN file
Remember to download programs supporting ITN files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TomTom HOME with ITN files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ITN file still does not use the TomTom HOME 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TomTom HOME application as the default for handling the ITN file.
Step 3. Update TomTom HOME to the latest version
If, however, after binding TomTom HOME with TomTom Navigator Itinerary Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ITN file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to ITN files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ITN file. Sometimes virus-infected ITN files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ITN files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ITN file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ITN 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the ITN file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ITN to close. However, some background programs may block the ITN file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
