Troubleshooting Problems Opening 14 Files


Common 14 Opening Problems

Missing Microsoft Windows

When you double-click your 14 file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Microsoft Windows for %%os%% installed. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the 14 file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


Tip: If you have another software that you know opens 14 files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.


Wrong Version of Microsoft Windows is Installed

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Microsoft Windows installed that's incompatible with your Versioned Pro/Engineer Project File type. Download the latest Microsoft Windows version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. 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: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the 14 file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Regardless, most of the 14 file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Windows installed.


Other Causes of 14 File Opening Problems

You can still experience errors opening 14 files even with the latest version of Microsoft Windows installed on your PC. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening 14s. Problems unrelated to software:

  • Windows Registry 14 file paths that are incorrect
  • Deletion of the 14 file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Partial installation of Microsoft Windows that did not fully complete
  • Something has caused file corruption of your 14
  • Your 14 is infected with malware
  • Device drivers for 14-related hardware are out-of-date
  • Insufficient system resources to successfully open Versioned Pro/Engineer Project File files
