Understanding PSC1 Issues

Troubles Opening PSC1 Files

Microsoft Windows PowerShell Removed

If you attempt to load your PSC1 file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open PSC1 Files". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because Microsoft Windows PowerShell isn't installed on your PC. The OS won't know what to do with your PSC1 file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your PSC1, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").

Microsoft Windows PowerShell is Out-of-Date

Your Windows PowerShell Console File file is incompatible with Microsoft Windows PowerShell because you might have the wrong version installed. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Windows PowerShell installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of PSC1 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 PSC1 files are due to having the wrong version of Microsoft Windows PowerShell installed.

Other PSC1 File Opening Causes

Although you might already have Microsoft Windows PowerShell or another PSC1-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Windows PowerShell Console File files. Other PSC1 opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. These issues include:

• PSC1 file references in the Windows Registry are broken
• Unintentional removal of the description of the PSC1 file inside the Windows Registry
• Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the PSC1 format
• PSC1 file corruption
• Your PSC1 has adversely impacted by malware
• Hardware associated with PSC1 has outdated drivers
• Too many applications are open on your PC to load your Windows PowerShell Console File file successfully
