FEQ Troubleshooting
Issues Opening FEQ Files
Missing Foobar2000
When trying to open your FEQ file, you get the error "Can't Open FEQ File Type". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Foobar2000 for %%os%% installed on your computer. Your operating system cannot associate your FEQ with Foobar2000, so double-clicking the file won't work.
Tip: If you have another software that you know opens FEQ files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.
Foobar2000 is Out-of-Date
It is possible that your version of Foobar2000 isn't able to open your SuperEQ Equalizer Settings file due to incompatibility. Installing the latest version of Foobar2000 from Piotr Pawlowski is recommended. Most of the time your SuperEQ Equalizer Settings file was created by a newer Foobar2000 than what you have installed.
Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your FEQ file and clicking "Properties".
Summary: Not having the right Foobar2000 version on your computer can cause problems opening FEQ files.
Other Causes of FEQ File Opening Problems
Although you might already have Foobar2000 or another FEQ-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening SuperEQ Equalizer Settings files. Other FEQ opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. Other contributing causes:
- Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for FEQ
- Accidental deletion of the description of the FEQ file in the Windows registry
- Partial installation of Foobar2000 that did not fully complete
- Your FEQ file is corrupted (issues with your SuperEQ Equalizer Settings file itself)
- Past or present virus infection has affected your FEQ
- Hardware related to FEQs has device driver corruption
- Windows has inadequate resources to open your SuperEQ Equalizer Settings file
