Step 2. Create association of XnView with SJ1 files

If, despite the installed application, the SJ1 file does not start in the XnView 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SJ1 file with the XnView application.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

If, however, after binding XnView with SEGA SJ-1 DIGIO Image there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SJ1 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SJ1 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 SJ1 file. Sometimes virus-infected SJ1 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 SJ1 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 SJ1 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 SJ1 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SJ1 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the SJ1 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 SJ1 file again. However, some background programs may block the SJ1 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
