QRS File Complications
Troubles Opening QRS Files
Missing Corel WordPerfect X8
When trying to open your QRS file, you get the error "Can't Open QRS File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to Corel WordPerfect X8 missing in %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your QRS file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.
Tip: Another QRS-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.
Outdated Corel WordPerfect X8
In other instances, your Corel WordPerfect Equation Editor Support Data file version may not be supported by your version of Corel WordPerfect X8. Download the latest Corel WordPerfect X8 version from the Corel website to ensure you have the correct one installed. This issue mainly occurs when your Corel WordPerfect Equation Editor Support Data file was created by a newer version of Corel WordPerfect X8 than you have on your PC.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the QRS file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening QRS files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
