Understanding 8BY Issues


Typical 8BY Opening Challenges

Adobe Photoshop Not Present

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open 8BY Files" when trying to open your 8BY. If so, it typically means that you don't have Adobe Photoshop installed for %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your 8BY with Adobe Photoshop, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: If you don't have Adobe Photoshop installed, and you know of another program to open your 8BY file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Outdated Adobe Photoshop

Sometimes your installed version of Adobe Photoshop won't support your PhotoDeluxe Plugin file. You will need to download a newer version of Adobe Photoshop if you don't have the right version. Your PhotoDeluxe Plugin file was probably created by a newer release of Adobe Photoshop than what's currently installed your computer.


Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your 8BY file and clicking "Properties".


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening 8BY files are due to having the wrong version of Adobe Photoshop installed.


Other 8BY File Opening Causes

Errors opening PhotoDeluxe Plugin files can still occur even with the latest Adobe Photoshop software installed on your computer. If you are continuing to have errors with loading 8BY files, other external issues might be to blame. These issues include:

  • 8BY file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the 8BY file in the Windows registry
  • Corrupt install of Adobe Photoshop or other 8BY-related program
  • The 8BY itself is corrupted
  • The 8BY is infected with a virus
  • Hardware associated with 8BY has outdated drivers
  • Windows cannot load your PhotoDeluxe Plugin file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
