How to open NMIND file?

The main problem with NovaMind Mind Map Format is that the NMIND file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that NMIND 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 NMIND 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 NovaMind

In this case, you should first verify that the NovaMind application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name NovaMind in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NMIND with NovaMind. Below you will find a list of applications that support NMIND files.

Programs to open NMIND file

Remember to download programs supporting NMIND files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of NovaMind with NMIND files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NMIND file to open in the NovaMind application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 NovaMind application as the default for handling the NMIND file.

Step 3. Update NovaMind to the latest version

If, however, after binding NovaMind with NovaMind Mind Map Format 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 Nova Mind Software Pty Ltd. page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to NMIND 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. 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 NMIND file. Sometimes virus-infected NMIND files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of NMIND 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.
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 NMIND file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact NovaMind
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NMIND 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move NMIND to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the NMIND file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NMIND to close. However, some background programs may block the NMIND file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
