What is PYJ file?
The file with the extension PYJ is the Misc Files file type. It was designed by IBM. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. IBM Cognos 8 appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use IBM Cognos Business Intelligence to handle this file. This is a program created by IBM.
How to open PYJ file?
The main problem with IBM Cognos 8 is that the PYJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open PYJ, 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 PYJ 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 IBM Cognos Business Intelligence
In this case, you should first verify that the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 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 PYJ with IBM Cognos Business Intelligence. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PYJ files.
Programs to open PYJ file
Remember to download programs supporting PYJ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of IBM Cognos Business Intelligence with PYJ files
If, despite the installed application, the PYJ file does not start in the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 IBM Cognos Business Intelligence application as the default for handling the PYJ file.
Step 3. Update IBM Cognos Business Intelligence to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence program, it is possible that IBM Cognos 8 requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the IBM website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PYJ 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PYJ file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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 PYJ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PYJ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of PYJ file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PYJ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting IBM, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PYJ 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. If possible, you can try to move the PYJ file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PYJ file again. However, some background programs may block the PYJ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
