The TUI file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the TUI files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the TUI file on each system platform.
What is TUI file?
The file with the extension TUI is the Settings Files file type. The creator of this file is National Instruments Corporation. Settings Files consists of 1305 similar files. NI LabWindows User Interface is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is LabWindows. This was created by National Instruments Corporation.
How to open TUI file?
The most common problem when using NI LabWindows User Interface is that a specific TUI is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that TUI files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TUI 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 LabWindows
The first step is to check if the computer has the LabWindows program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name LabWindows in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file TUI with LabWindows. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TUI files.
Programs to open TUI file
Remember to download programs supporting TUI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of LabWindows with TUI files
If, despite the installed application, the TUI file does not start in the LabWindows 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 TUI file with the LabWindows program.
Step 3. Update LabWindows to the latest version
If, despite the association of the LabWindows program with the NI LabWindows User Interface file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the National Instruments Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TUI file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The TUI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to TUI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TUI file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TUI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TUI files changes over time. 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 ability to automatically repair TUI file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact National Instruments Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TUI 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. Copying the TUI file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TUI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TUI to close. However, some background programs may block the TUI file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
