Step 2. Create association of Nero Multimedia Suite with NHD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NHD file to open in the Nero Multimedia Suite 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NHD file with the Nero Multimedia Suite application.

Step 3. Update Nero Multimedia Suite to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Nero Multimedia Suite program with the Nero AVHCD DVD Compilation file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Nero AG website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NHD 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NHD file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 NHD file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NHD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NHD files changes over time. 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NHD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Nero AG help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NHD 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the NHD file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NHD file again. 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.
