Troubles Opening VGA Files

Missing Microsoft Windows

Double-clicking your VGA file prompts the message "%%os%% Can't Open VGA File". Usually, this is because you do not have Microsoft Windows for %%os%% installed. You won't be able to double-click to open your VGA because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


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


Outdated Microsoft Windows

Your VGA Display Driver file is incompatible with Microsoft Windows because you might have the wrong version installed. Installing the latest version of Microsoft Windows from Microsoft Corporation is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your VGA Display Driver file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft Windows than what's installed.


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


Primarily, problems experienced when opening VGA files are due to having the incorrect version of Microsoft Windows installed on your computer.


More Causes of Problems Opening VGAs

Assuming you have the right Microsoft Windows version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening VGA files. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening VGA files. Other contributing causes:
