BLD File Complications

Issues Opening BLD Files

Missing Cadsoft Envisioneer

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open BLD Files" when trying to open your BLD. Customarily, this means that Cadsoft Envisioneer is not installed on %%os%%. 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 have another software that you know opens BLD files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.

Cadsoft Envisioneer is Out-of-Date

In some cases, you might have a newer (or older) version of a Envisioneer Building Project File file that is unsupported by your installed application version. If you've got the wrong version of Cadsoft Envisioneer installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is predominately due to having a Envisioneer Building Project File file version that was created by a newer version of Cadsoft Envisioneer than what you have installed on your PC.

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

Primarily, problems experienced when opening BLD files are due to having the incorrect version of Cadsoft Envisioneer installed on your computer.

Other Causes of BLD File Opening Problems

Even with the correct version of Cadsoft Envisioneer installed, you can still experience difficulties opening BLDs. If you are continuing to have errors with loading BLD files, other external issues might be to blame. Problems unrelated to software:

• File references in the Windows Registry for BLD are wrong
• Mistaken removal of the Windows registry BLD description
• Invalid installation of a BLD-associated program (eg. Cadsoft Envisioneer)
• Something has caused file corruption of your BLD
• BLD file integrity has been compromised by malware
