How to open NMPD file?

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NMPD 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 Navicat Premium

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Navicat Premium is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Navicat Premium in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open NMPD files.

Programs to open NMPD file

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

Step 2. Create association of Navicat Premium with NMPD files

If, despite the installed application, the NMPD file does not start in the Navicat Premium application, you must create a file association. 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. 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 Navicat Premium application as the default for handling the NMPD file.

Step 3. Update Navicat Premium to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Navicat Premium program, it is possible that Navicat For MariaDB Data Synchronization Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PremiumSoft CyberTech Ltd. website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NMPD file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the NMPD file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected NMPD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NMPD file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NMPD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NMPD 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the NMPD file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the NMPD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
