Troubleshooting Problems Opening VUE Files
Common Problems Opening VUE Files
E-on Vue Disappeared
You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open VUE Files" when trying to open your VUE. Customarily, this means that E-on Vue is not installed on %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your VUE file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.
Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your VUE, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").
E-on Vue Requires Update
Your Vue Scene File file is incompatible with E-on Vue because you might have the wrong version installed. Installing the latest version of E-on Vue from E-on Software, Inc. is recommended. This problem is predominately due to having a Vue Scene File file version that was created by a newer version of E-on Vue than what you have installed on your PC.
Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your VUE file and clicking "Properties".
Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening VUE files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
Associated Difficulties Loading VUE Files
In the majority of cases, installing the right version of E-on Vue will resolve your issue. If you are continuing to have errors with loading VUE files, other external issues might be to blame. Issues that aren't software-related:
- VUE file type Registry entries are wrong
- Accidental deletion of the description of the VUE file in the Windows registry
- Partial installation of E-on Vue that did not fully complete
- Something has caused file corruption of your VUE
- Past or present virus infection has affected your VUE
- VUE-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
- Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Vue Scene File format
