TRA File Complications

Typical TRA Opening Challenges

WinTrack Not Present

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open TRA Files" when trying to open your TRA. When this happens, it is commonly due to WinTrack missing in %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your TRA because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.

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

Outdated WinTrack

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a WinTrack Railroad Track Text File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Installing the latest version of WinTrack from Interscape is recommended. Your WinTrack Railroad Track Text File file was probably created by a newer release of WinTrack than what's currently installed your computer.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the TRA file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Summary: Not having the right WinTrack version on your computer can cause problems opening TRA files.

Other Causes of TRA File Opening Problems

Even with the correct version of WinTrack installed, you can still experience difficulties opening TRAs. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening TRA files. Issues that aren't software-related:

• Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for TRA
• Accidental deletion of the description of the TRA file in the Windows registry
• WinTrack or another TRA application experienced a flawed installation
• Something has caused file corruption of your TRA
• The TRA is infected with a virus
• Drivers associated with TRA software need to be updated
• Your PC doesn’t have enough available resources to open the WinTrack Railroad Track Text File file
