How to open PNRM file?
The main problem with RealPlayer For Mac is that the PNRM file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that PNRM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PNRM 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 RealPlayer
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that RealPlayer is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing RealPlayer 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 PNRM with RealPlayer. Below is a list of programs that support the file PNRM.
Programs to open PNRM file
Remember to download programs supporting PNRM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RealPlayer with PNRM files
If, despite the installed application, the PNRM file does not start in the RealPlayer 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 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the RealPlayer application as the default for handling the PNRM file.
Step 3. Update RealPlayer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the RealPlayer program, it is possible that RealPlayer For Mac requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the RealNetworks, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PNRM 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 PNRM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to PNRM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PNRM file. Sometimes virus-infected PNRM 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 PNRM files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PNRM files. You can restore the file from a backup or use RealNetworks, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PNRM 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PNRM to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PNRM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PNRM file again. However, some background programs may block the PNRM file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
