PAQ6 File Complications
Frequent PAQ6 Opening Issues
KGB Archiver Disappeared
You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open PAQ6 Files" when trying to open your PAQ6. If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have KGB Archiver for %%os%% installed on your computer. The typical path of opening your PAQ6 with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.
Tip: When another PAQ6 application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
Obsolete Version of KGB Archiver
Sometimes your installed version of KGB Archiver won't support your PAQ6 Data Archive file. Visit the Open Source website to download (or purchase) the latest version of KGB Archiver. Your PAQ6 Data Archive file was probably created by a newer release of KGB Archiver than what's currently installed your computer.
Tip: Right-clicking on your PAQ6, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.
Conclusion: The majority of PAQ6 file opening issues are due to not having the correct KGB Archiver version installed.
