Sources of CLG Problems

Common Problems Opening CLG Files

Microsoft Windows is Not Installed

When you double-click your CLG file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Windows installed for %%os%%. 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 CLG files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Outdated Microsoft Windows

Sometimes your installed version of Microsoft Windows won't support your Windows Catalog File file. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Microsoft Windows. This issue mainly occurs when your Windows Catalog File file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Windows than you have on your PC.

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

Conclusion: The majority of CLG file opening issues are due to not having the correct Microsoft Windows version installed.
