Troubleshoot LGF Files

Common LGF Opening Problems

Microsoft Windows is Not Installed

Double-clicking your LGF file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open LGF File". Usually, this is because you do not have Microsoft Windows for %%os%% installed. The OS won't know what to do with your LGF file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your LGF, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").

Incorrect Microsoft Windows Version

Your Microsoft Windows Application Log File file is incompatible with Microsoft Windows because you might have the wrong version installed. Download the latest Microsoft Windows version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. This issue mainly occurs when your Microsoft Windows Application Log File file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Windows than you have on your PC.

Tip: Right-clicking on your LGF, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Regardless, most of the LGF file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Windows installed.

Other Causes of LGF File Opening Problems

You can still experience errors opening LGF files even with the latest version of Microsoft Windows installed on your PC. If you're still experiencing problems opening LGF files, there could be other computer problems. Other contributing causes:

• Invalid LGF file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
• Unintentional removal of the description of the LGF file inside the Windows Registry
• Invalid installation of a LGF-associated program (eg. Microsoft Windows)
• LGF file corruption
• Your LGF has adversely impacted by malware
• Device drivers for LGF-related hardware are out-of-date
• Windows cannot load your Microsoft Windows Application Log File file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
