Troubleshooting Problems Opening SEG Files


Typical SEG Opening Challenges

Unknown Software Disappeared

Double-clicking your SEG file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open SEG File". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because Unknown Software isn't installed on your PC. The typical path of opening your SEG with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: If you know of another program that can open your SEG file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.


Incorrect Unknown Software Version

Sometimes your installed version of Unknown Software won't support your SEG-2 Data File file. Installing the latest version of Unknown Software from Unknown Developer is recommended. This problem is predominately due to having a SEG-2 Data File file version that was created by a newer version of Unknown Software than what you have installed on your PC.


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


Primarily, problems experienced when opening SEG files are due to having the incorrect version of Unknown Software installed on your computer.


Other SEG File Opening Causes

You can still experience errors opening SEG files even with the latest version of Unknown Software installed on your PC. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening SEG files. Issues that aren't software-related:

  • Windows Registry SEG file paths that are incorrect
  • Mistaken removal of the Windows registry SEG description
  • Unknown Software or another SEG application experienced a flawed installation
  • Your SEG file is corrupted (issues with your SEG-2 Data File file itself)
  • Malware-tainted SEG file can't be opened
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your SEG file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the SEG-2 Data File format
