What is NYF file?

The file in the NYF format belongs to the Database Files category. It was designed by Wjj Software. Additionally, the Database Files category contains 403 of other files. MyBase Database Format is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The myBase Desktop application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Wjj Software.

How to open NYF file?

An often recurring problem with MyBase Database Format is that NYF is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file NYF 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 NYF 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 myBase Desktop

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that myBase Desktop is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name myBase Desktop in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NYF with myBase Desktop. Below is a list of programs that support the file NYF.

Programs to open NYF file

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

Step 2. Create association of myBase Desktop with NYF files

If, despite the installed application, the NYF file does not start in the myBase Desktop application, you must create a file 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the NYF file with the myBase Desktop program.

Step 3. Update myBase Desktop to the latest version

If, however, after binding myBase Desktop with MyBase Database Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Wjj Software website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to NYF files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NYF or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NYF file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the NYF files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair NYF file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Wjj Software
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NYF 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the NYF file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NYF to close. However, some background programs may block the NYF file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
