Troubleshooting Problems Opening VBR Files


Frequent VBR Opening Issues

Microsoft Visual Basic Not Present

Double-clicking your VBR file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open VBR File". Customarily, this means that Microsoft Visual Basic is not installed on %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your VBR file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.


Tip: If you don't have Microsoft Visual Basic installed, and you know of another program to open your VBR file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Obsolete Version of Microsoft Visual Basic

Your Visual Basic Remote Automation Registration file is incompatible with Microsoft Visual Basic because you might have the wrong version installed. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Visual Basic installed, you'll need to install the correct version. The primary cause of this problem is that your Visual Basic Remote Automation Registration file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Visual Basic than what's installed.


Tip: Investigate your VBR file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Regardless, most of the VBR file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Visual Basic installed.


Associated Difficulties Loading VBR Files

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of Microsoft Visual Basic will resolve your issue. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening VBR files. Other contributing causes:

  • VBR file type Registry entries are wrong
  • Corruption of the VBR file description inside the Registry
  • Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the VBR format
  • Something has caused file corruption of your VBR
  • The VBR is infected with a virus
  • VBR-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Windows cannot load your Visual Basic Remote Automation Registration file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
