How to open PJL file?
The most common problem when using ProCite Term Lists And Journal Title Lists is that a specific PJL is not associated with the program. This causes the file PJL 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 PJL 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 ProCite

Programs to open PJL file
Remember to download programs supporting PJL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ProCite with PJL files
If, despite the installed application, the PJL file does not start in the ProCite application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PJL file with the ProCite application.
Step 3. Update ProCite to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ProCite program with the ProCite Term Lists And Journal Title Lists file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Thomson Reuters page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PJL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PJL file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PJL file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected PJL files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of PJL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PJL file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PJL 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PJL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PJL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PJL to close. However, some background programs may block the PJL file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
