How to open NRL file?
The main problem with Autonomy Interwoven Link Format is that the NRL file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file NRL 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 NRL 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 Interwoven DeskSite
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Interwoven DeskSite is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Interwoven DeskSite in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support NRL files.
Programs to open NRL file
Remember to download programs supporting NRL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Interwoven DeskSite with NRL files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NRL file to open in the Interwoven DeskSite application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 NRL file with the Interwoven DeskSite program.
Step 3. Update Interwoven DeskSite to the latest version
If, however, after binding Interwoven DeskSite with Autonomy Interwoven Link Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NRL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the NRL file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 NRL or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NRL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NRL 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 option of recovering data from damaged NRL files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NRL 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 NRL file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 NRL file again. However, some background programs may block the NRL file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
