Troubleshooting Problems Opening _SLN140 Files

Troubles Opening _SLN140 Files

Microsoft Visual Studio is Not Installed

When trying to open your _SLN140 file, you get the error "Can't Open _SLN140 File Type". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because Microsoft Visual Studio isn't installed on your PC. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the _SLN140 file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.

Tip: When another _SLN140 application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.

Microsoft Visual Studio is Out-of-Date

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Microsoft Visual Studio Data file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you've got the wrong version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: Right-clicking on your _SLN140, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.

Regardless, most of the _SLN140 file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Microsoft Visual Studio installed.
