JSPROJ Troubleshooting
Typical JSPROJ Opening Challenges
Microsoft Visual Studio Removed
If you attempt to load your JSPROJ file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open JSPROJ Files". When this happens, it is commonly due to Microsoft Visual Studio missing in %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your JSPROJ with Microsoft Visual Studio, so double-clicking the file won't work.
Tip: If you know of another program that can open your JSPROJ file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.
Outdated Microsoft Visual Studio
It is possible that your version of Microsoft Visual Studio isn't able to open your Microsoft Visual Studio Data File file due to incompatibility. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the JSPROJ file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Regardless, most of the JSPROJ file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed.
