PSHADER Troubleshooting

Typical PSHADER Opening Challenges

Microsoft Visual Studio Isn't There

If you attempt to load your PSHADER file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open PSHADER Files". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Visual Studio installed for %%os%%. The typical path of opening your PSHADER with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.

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

Wrong Version of Microsoft Visual Studio is Installed

Sometimes your installed version of Microsoft Visual Studio won't support your Microsoft Visual Studio Data File file. Download the latest Microsoft Visual Studio version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. The primary cause of this problem is that your Microsoft Visual Studio Data File file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Visual Studio than what's installed.

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

Summary: Not having the right Microsoft Visual Studio version on your computer can cause problems opening PSHADER files.
