How to open JIM file?
The main problem with JIRA Importers Plugin Format is that the JIM file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open JIM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JIM 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 JIRA
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that JIRA is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name JIRA 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 JIM.
Programs to open JIM file
Remember to download programs supporting JIM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of JIRA with JIM files
If, despite the installed application, the JIM file does not start in the JIRA application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the JIM file with the JIRA application.
Step 3. Update JIRA to the latest version
If, despite the association of the JIRA program with the JIRA Importers Plugin 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 Atlassian website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JIM 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to JIM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the JIM file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover JIM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of JIM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular JIM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , 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 file JIM except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the JIM file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file JIM to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
