How to open NRM file?

An often recurring problem with Nero Mixed Mode CD Compilation is that NRM is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that NRM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

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

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Nero Multimedia Suite is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Nero Multimedia Suite in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file NRM.

Programs to open NRM file

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

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

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NRM file to open in the Nero Multimedia Suite application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NRM file with the Nero Multimedia Suite application.

Step 3. Update Nero Multimedia Suite to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Nero Multimedia Suite program with the Nero Mixed Mode CD Compilation file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. 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 NRM file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the NRM file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NRM file. Sometimes virus-infected NRM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NRM files changes over time. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NRM 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 NRM 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the NRM file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NRM file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
