How to open PJ file?
The main problem with Project64 Saved State Format is that the PJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PJ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PJ 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 Project64
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Project64 is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Project64 in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PJ with Project64. Below is a list of programs that support the file PJ.
Programs to open PJ file
Remember to download programs supporting PJ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Project64 with PJ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PJ file still does not use the Project64 program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 Project64 application as the default for handling the PJ file.
Step 3. Update Project64 to the latest version
If, however, after binding Project64 with Project64 Saved State Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Project64 Team page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PJ 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 PJ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 PJ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PJ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the PJ files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PJ files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Project64, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PJ 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the PJ file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 PJ to close. 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.
