How to open NUB file?

The main problem with Xerox FreeFlow NUB Init is that the NUB file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open NUB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

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

The first step is to check if the computer has the FreeFlow program installed. To do this, enter the name FreeFlow into the system search engine. 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 NUB files.

Programs to open NUB file

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

Step 2. Create association of FreeFlow with NUB files

If, despite the installed application, the NUB file does not start in the FreeFlow application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 NUB file with the FreeFlow program.

Step 3. Update FreeFlow to the latest version

If, despite the association of the FreeFlow program with the Xerox FreeFlow NUB Init file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the XEROX CORPORATION website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NUB 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 NUB file contents when downloading or copying. 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NUB file. Sometimes virus-infected NUB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NUB file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NUB files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting XEROX CORPORATION, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NUB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the NUB file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the NUB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
