If You Have Pentax RAW Bitmap Graphic Installed

If this software package is already installed on your PC, but it still won't work to open your PEF file, you might have to check that the file associations are correct. Right-click on the file, select "Open With..." and then select Pentax RAW Bitmap Graphic. That will create an association between the PEF file extension and your chosen software.

Your PEF Might Be Corrupt

Finally, if you're still having issues opening your PEF file, download the file again or ask the sender to resend it. It's possible that your PEF file might be corrupt. As a last resort, contact the software developers to see if they may be of further assistance.
