How to open NRU file?
An often recurring problem with Nero UDF CD-ROM Compilation is that NRU is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file NRU 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 NRU 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 you will find a list of applications that support NRU files.
Programs to open NRU file
Remember to download programs supporting NRU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Nero Multimedia Suite with NRU files
If, despite the installed application, the NRU 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the NRU file with the Nero Multimedia Suite application.
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The fault may also lie with the Nero Multimedia Suite program, it is possible that Nero UDF CD-ROM Compilation requires a newer version of the program.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 NRU 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 NRU file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to NRU files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NRU or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected NRU files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NRU file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NRU file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Nero
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NRU 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the NRU file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the NRU file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NRU file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
