Understanding GPR Issues


Common Problems Opening GPR Files

Microsoft Excel Not Present

When you double-click your GPR file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". If so, it typically means that you don't have Microsoft Excel installed for %%os%%. You won't be able to double-click to open your GPR because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: Another GPR-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Wrong Version of Microsoft Excel is Installed

It is possible that your version of Microsoft Excel isn't able to open your GenePix Results File file due to incompatibility. Installing the latest version of Microsoft Excel from Microsoft Corporation is recommended. This issue mainly occurs when your GenePix Results File file was created by a newer version of Microsoft Excel than you have on your PC.


Tip: If you right-click on your GPR file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.


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


Other GPR File Opening Causes

Assuming you have the right Microsoft Excel version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening GPR files. If you are continuing to have errors with loading GPR files, other external issues might be to blame. Problems unrelated to software:

  • File references in the Windows Registry for GPR are wrong
  • The GPR file description within the Windows Registry was removed
  • Partial installation of Microsoft Excel that did not fully complete
  • File corruption affecting your GPR file
  • Your GPR has adversely impacted by malware
  • Hardware related to GPRs has device driver corruption
  • Windows cannot load your GenePix Results File file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
