Common Problems Opening LIVEREG Files

Symantec LiveReg Isn't There

You attempt to load your LIVEREG file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The LIVEREG File Extension". When this happens, it is commonly due to Symantec LiveReg missing in %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your LIVEREG file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your LIVEREG file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Incorrect Symantec LiveReg Version

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Symantec LiveReg installed that's incompatible with your Symantec Antivirus Session File type. You will need to download a newer version of Symantec LiveReg if you don't have the right version.

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

Summary: Not having the right Symantec LiveReg version on your computer can cause problems opening LIVEREG files.
