How to open NXN file?

An often recurring problem with Avid Interplay Permanent License is that NXN is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open NXN, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

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

The first step is to check if the computer has the Interplay program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Interplay in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NXN with Interplay. Below is a list of programs that support the file NXN.

Programs to open NXN file

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

Step 2. Create association of Interplay with NXN files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NXN file to open in the Interplay 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 Interplay application as the default for handling the NXN file.

Step 3. Update Interplay to the latest version

If, however, after binding Interplay with Avid Interplay Permanent License there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Avid Technology, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NXN 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 NXN file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our NXN file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NXN 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 NXN 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular NXN file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Avid Technology, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file NXN except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the NXN file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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 NXN file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
