How to open PTU file?
An often recurring problem with Nova Logic Effects Definition is that PTU is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open PTU, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PTU 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 Delta Force
The first step is to check if the computer has the Delta Force program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Delta Force in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file PTU.
Programs to open PTU file
Remember to download programs supporting PTU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Delta Force with PTU files
If, despite the installed application, the PTU file does not start in the Delta Force 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 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 PTU file with the Delta Force program.
Step 3. Update Delta Force to the latest version
If, however, after binding Delta Force with Nova Logic Effects Definition there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the NovaLogic, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PTU file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PTU file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PTU file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected PTU files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PTU 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PTU file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use NovaLogic, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PTU 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the PTU 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PTU to close. 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.
