What is NMM file?
The file with the extension NMM is the Video Files file type. It was designed by Microsoft Corporation. Video Files consists of 546 similar files. Microsoft 3D Movie Maker Video is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The main program that supports this format is 3D Movie Maker. This was created by Microsoft Corporation.
How to open NMM file?
The most common problem when using Microsoft 3D Movie Maker Video is that a specific NMM is not associated with the program. This causes the file NMM to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NMM 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 3D Movie Maker
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that 3D Movie Maker is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name 3D Movie Maker in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NMM with 3D Movie Maker. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open NMM files.
Programs to open NMM file
Remember to download programs supporting NMM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 3D Movie Maker with NMM files
If, despite the installed application, the NMM file does not start in the 3D Movie Maker application, you must create a file association. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NMM file with the 3D Movie Maker application.
Step 3. Update 3D Movie Maker to the latest version
If, despite the association of the 3D Movie Maker program with the Microsoft 3D Movie Maker Video file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NMM file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to NMM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NMM file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NMM 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 NMM files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NMM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NMM 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move NMM to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NMM to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NMM file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
