The JOINED file is supported on 3 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the JOINED files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the JOINED file on each system platform.
What is JOINED file?
The file with the extension JOINED is the Data Files file type. It was designed by Freebyte. In addition to this file, the Data Files category includes 1326 related files. HJ-Split Data Format appears on 3 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Linux, Mac OS, Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use HJSplit to handle this file. This is a program created by Freebyte.com. This file type can also be opened by 3 other programs. The MAC programs will also handle the file when the HJSplit program does not fulfill its role.
How to open JOINED file?
The main problem with HJ-Split Data Format is that the JOINED file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that JOINED files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JOINED 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 HJSplit
The first step is to check if the computer has the HJSplit program installed. To do this, enter the name HJSplit into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file JOINED with HJSplit. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open JOINED files.
Programs to open JOINED file
Remember to download programs supporting JOINED files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of HJSplit with JOINED files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the JOINED file to open in the HJSplit application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 JOINED file with the HJSplit application.
Step 3. Update HJSplit to the latest version
If, however, after binding HJSplit with HJ-Split Data Format 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 Freebyte.com website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JOINED file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The JOINED file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the JOINED file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our JOINED file. Sometimes virus-infected JOINED files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the JOINED file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular JOINED file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Freebyte help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file JOINED 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move JOINED to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the JOINED file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file JOINED to close. However, some background programs may block the JOINED file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
