What is JPM file?

The file in the JPM format belongs to the Graphic Files category. In addition to this file, the Graphic Files category includes 524 related files. JPEG 2000 Multi-layer Image Format (ISO 15444-6) is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The IrfanView application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Irfan Skiljan. Alternatively, you can use 1 other programs. XnView will apply when it is not possible to use IrfanView.

How to open JPM file?

The most common problem when using JPEG 2000 Multi-layer Image Format (ISO 15444-6) is that a specific JPM is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open JPM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JPM 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 IrfanView

In this case, you should first verify that the IrfanView application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing IrfanView into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open JPM files.

Programs to open JPM file

Remember to download programs supporting JPM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of IrfanView with JPM files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the JPM file to open in the IrfanView application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the JPM file with the IrfanView program.

Step 3. Update IrfanView to the latest version

If, despite the association of the IrfanView program with the JPEG 2000 Multi-layer Image Format (ISO 15444-6) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Irfan Skiljan website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JPM file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The JPM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the JPM file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 JPM file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected JPM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the JPM file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular JPM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted JPM 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the JPM file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the JPM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
