Troubleshooting Problems Opening KTE Files

Common KTE Opening Problems

FoilMaker Disappeared

If you attempt to load your KTE file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open KTE Files". Usually, this is because you do not have FoilMaker for %%os%% installed. The OS won't know what to do with your KTE file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your KTE file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Obsolete Version of FoilMaker

Sometimes your installed version of FoilMaker won't support your Kite Design File file. If you've got the wrong version of FoilMaker installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.

Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your KTE file and clicking "Properties".

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

Other KTE File Issues

Although you might already have FoilMaker or another KTE-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Kite Design File files. If you are still having problems opening KTE files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Problems unrelated to software:

• File references in the Windows Registry for KTE are wrong
• Mistaken removal of the Windows registry KTE description
• Invalid installation of a KTE-associated program (eg. FoilMaker)
• Your KTE file is corrupted (issues with your Kite Design File file itself)
• The KTE is infected with a virus
• Hardware related to KTEs has device driver corruption
• Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Kite Design File format
