How to open YTI file?

The most common problem when using Google Picasa Plugin is that a specific YTI is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open YTI, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the YTI 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 Google Picasa

In this case, you should first verify that the Google Picasa application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Google Picasa in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file YTI with Google Picasa. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open YTI files.

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

Step 2. Create association of Google Picasa with YTI files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the YTI file still does not use the Google Picasa program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the YTI file with the Google Picasa program.

Step 3. Update Google Picasa to the latest version

If, however, after binding Google Picasa with Google Picasa Plugin there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Google Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

The YTI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to YTI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file YTI or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover YTI 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 YTI 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular YTI file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Google Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file YTI 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the YTI file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the YTI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the YTI file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
