How to open NXC file?
The most common problem when using Not EXactly C Source Code Format is that a specific NXC is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open NXC, 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 NXC 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 NBC
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that NBC is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name NBC in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support NXC files.
Programs to open NXC file
Remember to download programs supporting NXC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of NBC with NXC files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NXC file still does not use the NBC program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the NBC application as the default for handling the NXC file.
Step 3. Update NBC to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the NBC program, it is possible that Not EXactly C Source Code Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NXC 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the NXC file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 NXC file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NXC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the NXC file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged NXC files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NXC 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 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. If possible, you can try to move the NXC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the NXC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the NXC file again. However, some background programs may block the NXC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
