How to open PIMA file?
The main problem with Adobe Application Manager Package is that the PIMA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PIMA to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PIMA 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 Adobe Creative Suite
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Adobe Creative Suite is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Adobe Creative Suite into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PIMA files.
Programs to open PIMA file
Remember to download programs supporting PIMA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe Creative Suite with PIMA files
If, despite the installed application, the PIMA file does not start in the Adobe Creative Suite 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe Creative Suite application as the default for handling the PIMA file.
Step 3. Update Adobe Creative Suite to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Adobe Creative Suite program, it is possible that Adobe Application Manager Package requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PIMA 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PIMA 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. 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 PIMA file. However, remember that not every infected PIMA 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 PIMA file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PIMA files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Adobe Systems Incorporated, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PIMA 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the PIMA file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PIMA file again. However, some background programs may block the PIMA file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
