EQF Troubleshooting


Common EQF Opening Problems

Nullsoft Winamp Removed

You attempt to load your EQF file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The EQF File Extension". Usually, this is because you do not have Nullsoft Winamp for %%os%% installed. The typical path of opening your EQF with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


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


Nullsoft Winamp Requires Update

Your Winamp Equalizer Preset File file is incompatible with Nullsoft Winamp because you might have the wrong version installed. Visit the Nullsoft website to download (or purchase) the latest version of Nullsoft Winamp. This problem is predominately due to having a Winamp Equalizer Preset File file version that was created by a newer version of Nullsoft Winamp than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the EQF file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening EQF files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
