Common Problems Opening OPT Files

LexisNexis Concordance Disappeared

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

Summary: Not having the right LexisNexis Concordance version on your computer can cause problems opening OPT files.
