How to open NRC file?

The most common problem when using Nero Disc Compilation Format is that a specific NRC is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that NRC 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 NRC 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 Nero Multimedia Suite

The first step is to check if the computer has the Nero Multimedia Suite program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Nero Multimedia Suite in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NRC with Nero Multimedia Suite. Below is a list of programs that support the file NRC.

Programs to open NRC file

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

Step 2. Create association of Nero Multimedia Suite with NRC files

If, despite the installed application, the NRC file does not start in the Nero Multimedia Suite 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NRC file with the Nero Multimedia Suite program.

Step 3. Update Nero Multimedia Suite to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Nero Multimedia Suite program, it is possible that Nero Disc Compilation Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Nero AG page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to NRC 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NRC or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NRC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of NRC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NRC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Nero
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file NRC 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 NRC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NRC file again. However, some background programs may block the NRC file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
