What is PJT file?
The file in the PJT format belongs to the Text Files category. In addition to this file, the Text Files category includes 440 related files. FoxPro Project Memo appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The Visual FoxPro application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Microsoft Corporation. There are also 1 alternative programs to handle the PJT file. The Visual C++ programs will also handle the file when the Visual FoxPro program does not fulfill its role.
How to open PJT file?
An often recurring problem with FoxPro Project Memo is that PJT is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file PJT 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 PJT 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 Visual FoxPro
In this case, you should first verify that the Visual FoxPro application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Visual FoxPro into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PJT with Visual FoxPro. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PJT files.
Programs to open PJT file
Remember to download programs supporting PJT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Visual FoxPro with PJT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PJT file still does not use the Visual FoxPro program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PJT file with the Visual FoxPro program.
Step 3. Update Visual FoxPro to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Visual FoxPro program with the FoxPro Project Memo file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PJT file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the PJT file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PJT or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PJT 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 PJT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PJT file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PJT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the PJT file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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 this does not work either, restart the device.
