How to open NOINDEX file?
The most common problem when using Mac OS X Spotlight Index is that a specific NOINDEX is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that NOINDEX 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 NOINDEX 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 Mac OS X
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Mac OS X is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Mac OS X into the operating system search engine.

Programs to open NOINDEX file
Remember to download programs supporting NOINDEX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Mac OS X with NOINDEX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NOINDEX file to open in the Mac OS X application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NOINDEX file with the Mac OS X program.
Step 3. Update Mac OS X to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Mac OS X program with the Mac OS X Spotlight Index 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 Apple, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NOINDEX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The NOINDEX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the NOINDEX file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NOINDEX or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NOINDEX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of NOINDEX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NOINDEX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Apple, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NOINDEX 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.
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 NOINDEX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the NOINDEX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NOINDEX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NOINDEX file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
