Troubleshooting Problems Opening NCT Files

Frequent NCT Opening Issues

Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) is Not Installed

You attempt to load your NCT file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The NCT File Extension". If so, it typically means that you don't have Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) installed for %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your NCT file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens NCT files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Incorrect Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) Version

Sometimes your installed version of Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) won't support your Now Contact File file. You will need to download a newer version of Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) if you don't have the right version. This problem is predominately due to having a Now Contact File file version that was created by a newer version of Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) than what you have installed on your PC.

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

Summary: Not having the right Now Up-to-Date (Now Contact) version on your computer can cause problems opening NCT files.
