Programs to open QED file
Remember to download programs supporting QED files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Memory-Map Navigator with QED files
If, despite the installed application, the QED file does not start in the Memory-Map Navigator 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 select the desired program. 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 QED file with the Memory-Map Navigator application.

If, despite the association of the Memory-Map Navigator program with the Memory-Map Navigator Map 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 Memory-Map, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the QED 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to QED 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file QED or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected QED file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the QED file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular QED file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Memory-Map, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted QED 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the QED file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file QED to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the QED file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
