Step 2. Create association of Kontrol Editor with NKTRL_DATA files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NKTRL_DATA file to open in the Kontrol Editor 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location.

Step 3. Update Kontrol Editor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Kontrol Editor program, it is possible that KORG KONTROL Editor Data Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the KORG website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NKTRL_DATA 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:

The NKTRL_DATA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to NKTRL_DATA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NKTRL_DATA or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NKTRL_DATA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NKTRL_DATA 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NKTRL_DATA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NKTRL_DATA 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the NKTRL_DATA file to another location will fix the problem.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
