Programs to open PNRA file
Remember to download programs supporting PNRA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RealPlayer with PNRA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PNRA file still does not use the RealPlayer program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PNRA file with the RealPlayer application.
Step 3. Update RealPlayer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the RealPlayer program with the RealPlayer Formatnte Fippra 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 RealNetworks, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PNRA file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the PNRA 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PNRA file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PNRA files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PNRA 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PNRA files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting RealNetworks, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PNRA files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. It is best to move PNRA to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the PNRA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PNRA to close. However, some background programs may block the PNRA file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
