Troubleshooting Problems Opening LDS Files


Common LDS Opening Problems

Microsoft Notepad is Not Installed

Double-clicking your LDS file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open LDS File". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Notepad installed for %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your LDS because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


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


Outdated Microsoft Notepad

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Binutils LD Linker Script file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Microsoft Notepad. The primary cause of this problem is that your Binutils LD Linker Script file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Notepad than what's installed.


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


Primarily, problems experienced when opening LDS files are due to having the incorrect version of Microsoft Notepad installed on your computer.


Associated Difficulties Loading LDS Files

You can still experience errors opening LDS files even with the latest version of Microsoft Notepad installed on your PC. If you are still having problems opening LDS files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Additional factors include:

  • File references in the Windows Registry for LDS are wrong
  • Corruption of the LDS file description inside the Registry
  • Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the LDS format
  • Your LDS can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
  • Malware-tainted LDS file can't be opened
  • Hardware related to LDSs has device driver corruption
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Binutils LD Linker Script format
