How to open N88 file?

The main problem with Apple IOS Kernel Cache is that the N88 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open N88, 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 N88 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 PwnageTool

In this case, you should first verify that the PwnageTool application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PwnageTool in it. 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 N88 files.

Programs to open N88 file

Remember to download programs supporting N88 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of PwnageTool with N88 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the N88 file still does not use the PwnageTool program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PwnageTool application as the default for handling the N88 file.

Step 3. Update PwnageTool to the latest version

If, however, after binding PwnageTool with Apple IOS Kernel Cache there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. 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 N88 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The N88 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to N88 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file N88 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover N88 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 N88 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair N88 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Apple, Inc., 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 file N88 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the N88 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the N88 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
