Troubleshoot HDB Files


Common Problems Opening HDB Files

HansaWorld Enterprise Isn't There

You attempt to load your HDB file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The HDB File Extension". Usually, this is because you do not have HansaWorld Enterprise for %%os%% installed. You won't be able to double-click to open your HDB because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: Another HDB-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Wrong Version of HansaWorld Enterprise is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a HansaWorld Database File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Visit the HansaWorld website to download (or purchase) the latest version of HansaWorld Enterprise. This issue mainly occurs when your HansaWorld Database File file was created by a newer version of HansaWorld Enterprise than you have on your PC.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of HDB file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Summary: Not having the right HansaWorld Enterprise version on your computer can cause problems opening HDB files.


Associated Difficulties Loading HDB Files

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of HansaWorld Enterprise will resolve your issue. If you are continuing to have errors with loading HDB files, other external issues might be to blame. Issues that aren't software-related:

  • HDB file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Deletion of the HDB file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Corrupt install of HansaWorld Enterprise or other HDB-related program
  • File corruption affecting your HDB file
  • Malware-tainted HDB file can't be opened
  • HDB-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the HansaWorld Database File format
