The JNX file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the JNX files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the JNX file on each system platform.
What is JNX file?
The JNX file has been categorized as GIS Files. GIS Files consists of 255 similar files. Garmin Raster Map appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use MAPC2MAPC to handle this file. This is a program created by MAPC2MAPC team.
How to open JNX file?
An often recurring problem with Garmin Raster Map is that JNX is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file JNX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JNX 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 MAPC2MAPC
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that MAPC2MAPC is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name MAPC2MAPC in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file JNX with MAPC2MAPC. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open JNX files.
Programs to open JNX file
Remember to download programs supporting JNX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MAPC2MAPC with JNX files
If, despite the installed application, the JNX file does not start in the MAPC2MAPC application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the JNX file with the MAPC2MAPC program.
Step 3. Update MAPC2MAPC to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the MAPC2MAPC program, it is possible that Garmin Raster Map requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the MAPC2MAPC team website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JNX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The JNX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to JNX 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the JNX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover JNX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the JNX 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged JNX files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted JNX 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the JNX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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 JNX file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
