Understanding QLC Issues


Frequent QLC Opening Issues

Missing Adobe Creative Suite

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open QLC Files" when trying to open your QLC. If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Adobe Creative Suite for %%os%% installed on your computer. The typical path of opening your QLC with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your QLC, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").


Incorrect Adobe Creative Suite Version

Sometimes your installed version of Adobe Creative Suite won't support your Adobe PostScript Help File file. If you've got the wrong version of Adobe Creative Suite installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your Adobe PostScript Help File file was created by a newer version of Adobe Creative Suite than you have on your PC.


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


Conclusion: The majority of QLC file opening issues are due to not having the correct Adobe Creative Suite version installed.


Additional QLC Opening Issues

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of Adobe Creative Suite will resolve your issue. If you are continuing to have errors with loading QLC files, other external issues might be to blame. Other contributing causes:

  • QLC file type Registry entries are wrong
  • Mistaken removal of the Windows registry QLC description
  • Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the QLC format
  • File corruption affecting your QLC file
  • Past or present virus infection has affected your QLC
  • QLC-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Adobe PostScript Help File format
