Understanding SDD Issues

Frequent SDD Opening Issues

Smart Diary Suite Not Present

Double-clicking your SDD file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open SDD File". Customarily, this means that Smart Diary Suite is not installed on %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the SDD file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.

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

Wrong Version of Smart Diary Suite is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Smart Diary Suite Data File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Installing the latest version of Smart Diary Suite from Programming Sunrise is recommended. Most of the time your Smart Diary Suite Data File file was created by a newer Smart Diary Suite than what you have installed.

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

Conclusion: The majority of SDD file opening issues are due to not having the correct Smart Diary Suite version installed.

Additional SDD Opening Issues

Even with the correct version of Smart Diary Suite installed, you can still experience difficulties opening SDDs. If you are still having problems opening SDD files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Problems unrelated to software:

• SDD file type Registry entries are wrong
• Corruption of the SDD file description inside the Registry
• Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the SDD format
• File corruption affecting your SDD file
• Your SDD has adversely impacted by malware
• SDD-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
• Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Smart Diary Suite Data File format
