How to open NAF file?
The main problem with TRAKTOR Service is that the NAF file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that NAF files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NAF 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 TRAKTOR
In this case, you should first verify that the TRAKTOR application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name TRAKTOR into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support NAF files.
Programs to open NAF file
Remember to download programs supporting NAF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TRAKTOR with NAF files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NAF file to open in the TRAKTOR 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NAF file with the TRAKTOR application.
Step 3. Update TRAKTOR to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TRAKTOR program with the TRAKTOR Service file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Native Instruments, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NAF file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to NAF 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 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NAF file. Sometimes virus-infected NAF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NAF files changes over time. 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NAF file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Native Instruments, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NAF 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. If possible, you can try to move the NAF file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NAF file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
