How to open PNI file?
The most common problem when using Popnoggin Image Format is that a specific PNI is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open PNI, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PNI 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 Popnoggin
In this case, you should first verify that the Popnoggin application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Popnoggin into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PNI with Popnoggin. Below you will find a list of applications that support PNI files.
Programs to open PNI file
Remember to download programs supporting PNI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Popnoggin with PNI files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PNI file to open in the Popnoggin application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 Popnoggin application as the default for handling the PNI file.
Step 3. Update Popnoggin to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Popnoggin program with the Popnoggin Image Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Popspring LLC website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PNI file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PNI file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 PNI file. Sometimes virus-infected PNI files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PNI file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PNI files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Popspring help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PNI 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the PNI 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PNI file again. However, some background programs may block the PNI file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
