How to open NEWSLOC file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NEWSLOC 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 Mac OS X

Programs to open NEWSLOC file
Remember to download programs supporting NEWSLOC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with NEWSLOC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NEWSLOC file to open in the Mac OS X 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 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 Mac OS X application as the default for handling the NEWSLOC file.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Mac OS X program with the Apple Mac OS X Finder News Internet Location file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Apple, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NEWSLOC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The NEWSLOC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the NEWSLOC file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the NEWSLOC file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected NEWSLOC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of NEWSLOC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NEWSLOC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NEWSLOC 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the NEWSLOC file to another location.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NEWSLOC file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
