Understanding QAG Issues


Frequent QAG Opening Issues

Norton Desktop Not Present

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open QAG Files" when trying to open your QAG. Customarily, this means that Norton Desktop is not installed on %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your QAG file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: When another QAG application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Norton Desktop is Out-of-Date

Your Norton Desktop Quick Access Group File file is incompatible with Norton Desktop because you might have the wrong version installed. If you've got the wrong version of Norton Desktop installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your Norton Desktop Quick Access Group File file was created by a newer version of Norton Desktop than you have on your PC.


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


Regardless, most of the QAG file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Norton Desktop installed.


Other QAG File Opening Causes

Errors opening Norton Desktop Quick Access Group File files can still occur even with the latest Norton Desktop software installed on your computer. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening QAG files. Additional factors include:

  • Invalid QAG file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
  • Corruption of the QAG file description inside the Registry
  • Norton Desktop or another QAG application experienced a flawed installation
  • Something has caused file corruption of your QAG
  • Malware-tainted QAG file can't be opened
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your QAG file are corrupt or out-of-date
