How to open UFI file?

An often recurring problem with UFOCaptureV2 is that UFI is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that UFI 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 UFI 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 UFOCaptureV2

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that UFOCaptureV2 is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing UFOCaptureV2 into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support UFI files.

Programs to open UFI file

Remember to download programs supporting UFI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of UFOCaptureV2 with UFI files

If, despite the installed application, the UFI file does not start in the UFOCaptureV2 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. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 UFI file with the UFOCaptureV2 program.

Step 3. Update UFOCaptureV2 to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the UFOCaptureV2 program, it is possible that UFOCaptureV2 requires a newer version of the program.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 SonotaCo page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UFI 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the UFI file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file UFI or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected UFI files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the UFI file. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular UFI file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact SonotaCo
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file UFI 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move UFI to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the UFI file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
