What is PUMA file?
The PUMA file has been categorized as Audio Files. Audio Files consists of 771 similar files. Pumatraker appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file.

How to open PUMA file?
An often recurring problem with Pumatraker is that PUMA is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that PUMA 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 PUMA 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 Amiga Forever
The first step is to check if the computer has the Amiga Forever program installed. This can be achieved by typing Amiga Forever into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file PUMA.
Programs to open PUMA file
Remember to download programs supporting PUMA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Amiga Forever with PUMA files
If, despite the installed application, the PUMA file does not start in the Amiga Forever application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PUMA file with the Amiga Forever program.
Step 3. Update Amiga Forever to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Amiga Forever program with the Pumatraker file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Cloanto IT srl page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PUMA file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the PUMA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 PUMA file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected PUMA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PUMA file. 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PUMA files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PUMA files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the PUMA file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PUMA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PUMA 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.
