Sources of LE Problems


Frequent LE Opening Issues

Missing MS-DOS

You attempt to load your LE file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The LE File Extension". Customarily, this means that MS-DOS is not installed on %%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 don't have MS-DOS installed, and you know of another program to open your LE file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


MS-DOS is Out-of-Date

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a DOS/4GW PM 32X DOS Extender Executable Image file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you've got the wrong version of MS-DOS installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your DOS/4GW PM 32X DOS Extender Executable Image file was created by a newer version of MS-DOS than you have on your PC.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of LE file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening LE files are due to having the wrong version of MS-DOS installed.
