Troubleshoot 87 Files


Frequent 87 Opening Issues

Pro/ENGINEER Disappeared

When you double-click your 87 file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Pro/ENGINEER installed for %%os%%. The typical path of opening your 87 with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: Another 87-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Pro/ENGINEER is Out-of-Date

Your Creo Elements/Pro Versioned Data file is incompatible with Pro/ENGINEER because you might have the wrong version installed. If you've got the wrong version of Pro/ENGINEER installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your Creo Elements/Pro Versioned Data file was created by a newer version of Pro/ENGINEER than you have on your PC.


Tip: Investigate your 87 file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening 87 files are due to having the wrong version of Pro/ENGINEER installed.


Other 87 File Opening Causes

Errors opening Creo Elements/Pro Versioned Data files can still occur even with the latest Pro/ENGINEER software installed on your computer. If you are continuing to have errors with loading 87 files, other external issues might be to blame. Other contributing causes:

  • 87 file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Deletion of the 87 file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Invalid installation of a 87-associated program (eg. Pro/ENGINEER)
  • Your 87 file is corrupted (issues with your Creo Elements/Pro Versioned Data file itself)
  • Your 87 is infected with malware
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your 87 file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Windows has inadequate resources to open your Creo Elements/Pro Versioned Data file
