VSMPROJ Troubleshooting

Frequent VSMPROJ Opening Issues

Microsoft Visual Studio is Not Installed

When you double-click your VSMPROJ file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Visual Studio installed for %%os%%. The typical path of opening your VSMPROJ 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 VSMPROJ file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Wrong Version of Microsoft Visual Studio is Installed

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Visual Studio Text Macro Project file that is unsupported by your installed application version. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio. Your Visual Studio Text Macro Project file was probably created by a newer release of Microsoft Visual Studio than what's currently installed your computer.

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

Conclusion: The majority of VSMPROJ file opening issues are due to not having the correct Microsoft Visual Studio version installed.
