Sources of MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE Problems
Typical MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE Opening Challenges
Microsoft Windows Removed
You attempt to load your MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE File Extension". Usually, this is because you do not have Microsoft Windows for %%os%% installed.

Tip: When another MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
Outdated Microsoft Windows
Sometimes your installed version of Microsoft Windows won't support your Microsoft Windows License Manager Data file. If you do not have the proper version Microsoft Windows (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. Your Microsoft Windows License Manager Data file was probably created by a newer release of Microsoft Windows than what's currently installed your computer.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening MS-WINDOWS-STORE-LICENSE files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
