Step 2. Create association of NotePad++ text editor with NBR files
If, despite the installed application, the NBR file does not start in the NotePad++ text editor application, you must create a file association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 NotePad++ text editor application as the default for handling the NBR file.
Step 3. Update NotePad++ text editor to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the NotePad++ text editor program, it is possible that Saved Benchmark Result requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Notepad++ Team website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NBR file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the NBR file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 NBR file. Sometimes virus-infected NBR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of NBR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NBR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Novawave, inc help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NBR 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 NBR file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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. 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.
