Understanding FLY Issues


Typical FLY Opening Challenges

TerraExplorer Not Present

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open FLY Files" when trying to open your FLY. If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have TerraExplorer for %%os%% installed on your computer. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.


Tip: When another FLY application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Outdated TerraExplorer

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a TerraExplorer Project File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. You will need to download a newer version of TerraExplorer if you don't have the right version. Most of the time your TerraExplorer Project File file was created by a newer TerraExplorer than what you have installed.


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


Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening FLY files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.


Other FLY File Opening Causes

Assuming you have the right TerraExplorer version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening FLY files. If you're still experiencing problems opening FLY files, there could be other computer problems. These issues include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for FLY
  • Corruption of the FLY file description inside the Registry
  • Partial installation of TerraExplorer that did not fully complete
  • Your FLY can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
  • FLY file integrity has been compromised by malware
  • FLY-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Windows has inadequate resources to open your TerraExplorer Project File file
