Troubleshooting Problems Opening FLG Files

Typical FLG Opening Challenges

Puppy Linux Removed

If you attempt to load your FLG file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open FLG Files". Usually, this is because you do not have Puppy Linux 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: If you have another software that you know opens FLG files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Incorrect Puppy Linux Version

Sometimes your installed version of Puppy Linux won't support your Puppy Linux Partition Flag File file. You will need to download a newer version of Puppy Linux if you don't have the right version. Your Puppy Linux Partition Flag File file was probably created by a newer release of Puppy Linux than what's currently installed your computer.

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