Troubles Opening XMS Files

Alexander Gross Music Studio Isn't There

You attempt to load your XMS file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The XMS File Extension". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Alexander Gross Music Studio for %%os%% installed on your computer. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your XMS file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Incorrect Alexander Gross Music Studio Version

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Music Studio Project file that is unsupported by your installed application version. You will need to download a newer version of Alexander Gross Music Studio if you don't have the right version.
