This occurs when you try to manually set file associations and select the JMP application that appears as a suggestion.

- Log in with an ID that has administrator privileges on the PC.
- Start the version of JMP you want to use as the default.
- Select [File] → [Preferences] from the menu bar.
- Click [Windows Only] in the Preferences Group list.
- Click the Reset Associations button.
- Verify that a message indicating the reset is displayed.
- Exit JMP, log out, and then log in with your usual ID.
- Perform steps 2 to 6.
- Exit JMP.
- In Explorer, right-click a .jmp file and select "Open with" -> "Choose another program."
- Check "Always use this app to open .jmp files."
