NU6 Troubleshooting

Common NU6 Opening Problems

Norton Utilities Not Present

Double-clicking your NU6 file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open NU6 File". Usually, this is because you do not have Norton Utilities for %%os%% installed. Your operating system cannot associate your NU6 with Norton Utilities, so double-clicking the file won't work.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens NU6 files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Obsolete Version of Norton Utilities

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Norton Utilities installed that's incompatible with your Norton Utilities System DLL File type. Installing the latest version of Norton Utilities from Symantec Corporation is recommended. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: Investigate your NU6 file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.

Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening NU6 files are due to having the wrong version of Norton Utilities installed.

Additional NU6 Opening Issues

Assuming you have the right Norton Utilities version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening NU6 files. If you are continuing to have errors with loading NU6 files, other external issues might be to blame. Problems unrelated to software:

• File references in the Windows Registry for NU6 are wrong
• Mistaken removal of the Windows registry NU6 description
• Invalid installation of a NU6-associated program (eg. Norton Utilities)
• Your NU6 can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
• Your NU6 is infected with malware
• Drivers associated with NU6 software need to be updated
• Windows has inadequate resources to open your Norton Utilities System DLL File file
