The NODES file has been categorized as Misc Files. The author of this format is PowerFolder. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files.

It was released by PowerFolder.
How to open NODES file?
The most common problem when using PowerFolder Nodes is that a specific NODES is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that NODES files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NODES 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 PowerFolder
In this case, you should first verify that the PowerFolder application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name PowerFolder into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NODES with PowerFolder. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open NODES files.
Programs to open NODES file
Remember to download programs supporting NODES files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PowerFolder with NODES files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NODES file still does not use the PowerFolder 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NODES file with the PowerFolder program.
Step 3. Update PowerFolder to the latest version
If, despite the association of the PowerFolder program with the PowerFolder Nodes file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PowerFolder website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NODES 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. Usually this applies to NODES files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 NODES file. However, remember that not every infected NODES 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 NODES 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NODES files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact PowerFolder
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NODES 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.
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 NODES file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the NODES 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. However, some background programs may block the NODES file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
