Troubles Opening CPU Files

CPU Simulation Utility Isn't There

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open CPU Files" when trying to open your CPU. Customarily, this means that CPU Simulation Utility is not installed on %%os%%. The typical path of opening your CPU with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: If you don't have CPU Simulation Utility installed, and you know of another program to open your CPU file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Obsolete Version of CPU Simulation Utility

Sometimes your installed version of CPU Simulation Utility won't support your Virtual CPU File file. Visit the Open Source website to download (or purchase) the latest version of CPU Simulation Utility. The primary cause of this problem is that your Virtual CPU File file was created by a different (newer) version of CPU Simulation Utility than what's installed.


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


Regardless, most of the CPU file opening problems relate to not having the right version of CPU Simulation Utility installed.


Other CPU File Issues

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of CPU Simulation Utility will resolve your issue. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening CPUs. Problems unrelated to software:

  • CPU file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Unintentional removal of the description of the CPU file inside the Windows Registry
  • CPU Simulation Utility or another CPU application experienced a flawed installation
  • CPU file corruption
  • The CPU is infected with a virus
  • Hardware associated with CPU has outdated drivers
  • Windows has inadequate resources to open your Virtual CPU File file
