Troubleshoot INC Files
Common INC Opening Problems
MacroMates TextMate Isn't There
When you double-click your INC 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 MacroMates TextMate installed for %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your INC because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.
Tip: If you know of another program that can open your INC file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.
MacroMates TextMate Requires Update
In other instances, your Include File file version may not be supported by your version of MacroMates TextMate. Download the latest MacroMates TextMate version from the MacroMates website to ensure you have the correct one installed. Your Include File file was probably created by a newer release of MacroMates TextMate than what's currently installed your computer.
Tip: If you right-click on your INC file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.
Regardless, most of the INC file opening problems relate to not having the right version of MacroMates TextMate installed.
Associated Difficulties Loading INC Files
Errors opening Include File files can still occur even with the latest MacroMates TextMate software installed on your computer. If you are still having problems opening INC files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. These issues include:

- Corruption of the INC file description inside the Registry
- Corrupt install of MacroMates TextMate or other INC-related program
- Something has caused file corruption of your INC
- Your INC is infected with malware
- Drivers associated with INC software need to be updated
- Your PC doesn’t have enough available resources to open the Include File file
