Issues Opening ACTIONSCRIPT Files

Missing Adobe Animate CC 2017

When trying to open your ACTIONSCRIPT file, you get the error "Can't Open ACTIONSCRIPT File Type". Customarily, this means that Adobe Animate CC 2017 is not installed on %%os%%. The typical path of opening your ACTIONSCRIPT with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.

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

Adobe Animate CC 2017 Requires Update

Your Adobe Flash ActionScript Data file is incompatible with Adobe Animate CC 2017 because you might have the wrong version installed. Download the latest Adobe Animate CC 2017 version from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website to ensure you have the correct one installed. This issue mainly occurs when your Adobe Flash ActionScript Data file was created by a newer version of Adobe Animate CC 2017 than you have on your PC.

Tip: Right-clicking on your ACTIONSCRIPT, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Primarily, problems experienced when opening ACTIONSCRIPT files are due to having the incorrect version of Adobe Animate CC 2017 installed on your computer.
