Programs to open NCZ file
Remember to download programs supporting NCZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Netcad with NCZ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NCZ file to open in the Netcad application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NCZ file with the Netcad application.
Step 3. Update Netcad to the latest version
If, however, after binding Netcad with Netcad Drawing there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Netcad website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NCZ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The NCZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the NCZ 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NCZ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NCZ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NCZ 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 NCZ files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Netcad, 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 NCZ files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. It is best to move NCZ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NCZ to close. However, some background programs may block the NCZ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
