How to open NHF file?
An often recurring problem with Nero HFS-CD Compilation is that NHF is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that NHF files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NHF 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 Nero Multimedia Suite
In this case, you should first verify that the Nero Multimedia Suite application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Nero Multimedia Suite into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open NHF files.
Programs to open NHF file
Remember to download programs supporting NHF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Nero Multimedia Suite with NHF files
If, despite the installed application, the NHF file does not start in the Nero Multimedia Suite application, you must create a file association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Nero Multimedia Suite application as the default for handling the NHF file.
Step 3. Update Nero Multimedia Suite to the latest version
If, however, after binding Nero Multimedia Suite with Nero HFS-CD Compilation there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Nero AG page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NHF file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the NHF file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the NHF file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NHF files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NHF file. 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 option of recovering data from damaged NHF files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Nero AG
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NHF files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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 NHF to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the NHF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NHF file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
