However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NEN file to open in the Nick-O-Matic Design Factory application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here.

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Br?derbund Software, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NEN 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the NEN file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NEN or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NEN file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of NEN 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NEN file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Brøderbund Software, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NEN 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move NEN to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 NEN to close. However, some background programs may block the NEN file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
