Step 2. Create association of Pismo File Mount Audit Package with PFO files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PFO file still does not use the Pismo File Mount Audit Package program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu.

Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PFO file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The PFO file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PFO file. 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PFO file. However, remember that not every infected PFO 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 PFO file. 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 PFO file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Pismo Technic Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PFO 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the PFO file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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.
