Troubleshoot OBT Files

Troubles Opening OBT Files

Openbox Disappeared

Double-clicking your OBT file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open OBT File". If so, it typically means that you don't have Openbox installed for %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your OBT with Openbox, so double-clicking the file won't work.

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

Wrong Version of Openbox is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Openbox Theme File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. You will need to download a newer version of Openbox if you don't have the right version. Your Openbox Theme File file was probably created by a newer release of Openbox than what's currently installed your computer.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the OBT file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Conclusion: The majority of OBT file opening issues are due to not having the correct Openbox version installed.

Additional OBT Opening Issues

You can still experience errors opening OBT files even with the latest version of Openbox installed on your PC. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening OBTs. Other contributing causes:

• Invalid OBT file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
• Deletion of the OBT file description from the Registry by mistake
• Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the OBT format
• OBT file corruption
• Your OBT has adversely impacted by malware
• OBT-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
• Windows has inadequate resources to open your Openbox Theme File file
