Step 2. Create association of KOMPLETE with NFM8 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NFM8 file still does not use the KOMPLETE program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NFM8 file

The NFM8 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to NFM8 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NFM8 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NFM8 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of NFM8 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NFM8 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NFM8 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move NFM8 to a different directory.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NFM8 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NFM8 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
