The SUI file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the SUI files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the SUI file on each system platform.
What is SUI file?
The SUI file has been categorized as Data Files. It was designed by Sean Maxwell. Additionally, the Data Files category contains 1326 of other files. StarSplatter User Interface Format is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Linux systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use StarSplatter to handle this file. This is a program created by Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. There are also 1 alternative programs to handle the SUI file.
How to open SUI file?
The most common problem when using StarSplatter User Interface Format is that a specific SUI is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that SUI files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SUI 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 StarSplatter
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that StarSplatter is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name StarSplatter 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 SUI with StarSplatter. Below is a list of programs that support the file SUI.
Programs to open SUI file
Remember to download programs supporting SUI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of StarSplatter with SUI files
If, despite the installed application, the SUI file does not start in the StarSplatter application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 SUI file with the StarSplatter program.
Step 3. Update StarSplatter to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the StarSplatter program, it is possible that StarSplatter User Interface Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SUI file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The SUI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SUI file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SUI or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected SUI 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 SUI 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.
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 ability to automatically repair SUI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Sean Maxwell, 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 SUI 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move SUI to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SUI file again. However, some background programs may block the SUI file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
