Common Problems Opening BD Files

Solaris is Not Installed

You attempt to load your BD file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The BD File Extension". Usually, this is because you do not have Solaris for %%os%% installed. 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: Another BD-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Solaris Requires Update

In other instances, your Solaris Browser Data File file version may not be supported by your version of Solaris. Installing the latest version of Solaris from Oracle Corporation is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your Solaris Browser Data File file was created by a different (newer) version of Solaris than what's installed.


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


Regardless, most of the BD file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Solaris installed.
