What did you call the file?

NAI Sniffer requires the file to have certain suffixes , e.g. ".cap" for the format you selected.
Maybe that could be the reason why you don't get it to work.
I have not used Sniffer 4.7 myself.

You can also try with saving in "Network Associates Sniffer (DOS-based)" and name the file so it is ending with ".enc",
and try if that file can be read.
