What is JPS file?

The JPS file has been categorized as Raster Image Files. Raster Image Files consists of 522 similar files. Stereo JPEG Image appears on 3 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Linux, Mac OS, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is XnView. This was created by Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet. This file type can also be opened by 4 other programs. You can use StereoPhoto Maker, Stereo Slideshow in case XnView cannot be used.

How to open JPS file?

The most common problem when using Stereo JPEG Image is that a specific JPS is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that JPS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JPS 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 XnView

In this case, you should first verify that the XnView application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name XnView in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file JPS with XnView. Below you will find a list of applications that support JPS files.

Programs to open JPS file

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

Step 2. Create association of XnView with JPS files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the JPS file still does not use the XnView program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XnView application as the default for handling the JPS file.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the XnView program, it is possible that Stereo JPEG Image requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JPS 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to JPS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file JPS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected JPS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of JPS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged JPS files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 JPS 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the JPS file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the JPS file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
