Programs to open N81 file
Remember to download programs supporting N81 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PwnageTool with N81 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the N81 file to open in the PwnageTool 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PwnageTool application as the default for handling the N81 file.
Step 3. Update PwnageTool to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PwnageTool program, it is possible that Apple IOS Kernel Cache requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the iPhone Dev Team website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the N81 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The N81 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to N81 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our N81 file. However, remember that not every infected N81 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 N81 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged N81 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted N81 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 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. Copying the N81 file to another location will fix the problem.
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 N81 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the N81 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
