SSH File Complications

Common SSH Opening Problems

Missing Internet Explorer

Double-clicking your SSH file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open SSH File". If so, it typically means that you don't have Internet Explorer installed for %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your SSH because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.

Tip: Another SSH-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.

Wrong Version of Internet Explorer is Installed

In other instances, your Microsoft Internet Explorer Style Sheet file version may not be supported by your version of Internet Explorer. Download the latest Internet Explorer version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. 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 SSH 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 SSH files are due to having the wrong version of Internet Explorer installed.

Other SSH File Opening Causes
