What is NMV file?

The NMV file has been categorized as Misc Files. The creator of this file is Quietust. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files.

This was created by Quietust.

How to open NMV file?

An often recurring problem with Nintendulator Movie Capture is that NMV is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file NMV to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NMV 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 Ninendolator

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Ninendolator is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Ninendolator in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NMV with Ninendolator. Below is a list of programs that support the file NMV.

Programs to open NMV file

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

Step 2. Create association of Ninendolator with NMV files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NMV file still does not use the Ninendolator program, it means no 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Ninendolator application as the default for handling the NMV file.

Step 3. Update Ninendolator to the latest version

If, however, after binding Ninendolator with Nintendulator Movie Capture there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Quietust website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to NMV 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NMV file. However, remember that not every infected NMV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NMV 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NMV files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Quietust, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NMV 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the NMV file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NMV to close. However, some background programs may block the NMV file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
