Common Problems Opening VSSCC Files

Microsoft Visual Studio Isn't There

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open VSSCC Files" when trying to open your VSSCC. When this happens, it is commonly due to Microsoft Visual Studio missing in %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your VSSCC with Microsoft Visual Studio, so double-clicking the file won't work.

Tip: If you have another software that you know opens VSSCC files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Incorrect Microsoft Visual Studio Version

It is possible that your version of Microsoft Visual Studio isn't able to open your Microsoft Visual Studio Temporary File file due to incompatibility. Download the latest Microsoft Visual Studio version from the Microsoft Corporation website to ensure you have the correct one installed. Your Microsoft Visual Studio Temporary File file was probably created by a newer release of Microsoft Visual Studio than what's currently installed your computer.

Tip: Right-clicking on your VSSCC, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening VSSCC files are due to having the wrong version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed.

Other VSSCC File Opening Causes

You can still experience errors opening VSSCC files even with the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed on your PC. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening VSSCC files. These issues include:

• VSSCC file references in the Windows Registry are broken
• Corruption of the VSSCC file description inside the Registry
• Defective install of a VSSCC program, such as Microsoft Visual Studio
• Your VSSCC can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
• Past or present virus infection has affected your VSSCC
• Drivers associated with VSSCC software need to be updated
• Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Microsoft Visual Studio Temporary File format
