How to open NW_ file?

The most common problem when using Noteworthy Composer Compressed is that a specific NW_ is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that NW_ 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 NW_ 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 NoteWorthy Composer

In this case, you should first verify that the NoteWorthy Composer application is installed on the computer.

Step 2. Create association of NoteWorthy Composer with NW_ files

If, despite the installed application, the NW_ file does not start in the NoteWorthy Composer application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NW_ file with the NoteWorthy Composer program.

Step 3. Update NoteWorthy Composer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the NoteWorthy Composer program, it is possible that Noteworthy Composer Compressed requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Noteworthy Software, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The NW_ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to NW_ 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 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the NW_ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected NW_ 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 NW_ file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 NW_ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Noteworthy Software, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NW_ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move NW_ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. 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.
