Sources of SG1 Problems


Typical SG1 Opening Challenges

WinDS PRO Isn't There

When you double-click your SG1 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 WinDS PRO installed for %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the SG1 file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


Tip: When you have another program installed that you know will open your SG1, you can select it from the other programs listed (see "Show Apps").


WinDS PRO is Out-of-Date

It is possible that your version of WinDS PRO isn't able to open your Standford Graphics File file due to incompatibility. If you do not have the proper version WinDS PRO (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. This problem is predominately due to having a Standford Graphics File file version that was created by a newer version of WinDS PRO than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: Find clues on the correct software version by right-clicking your SG1 file and clicking "Properties".


Summary: Not having the right WinDS PRO version on your computer can cause problems opening SG1 files.


More Causes of Problems Opening SG1s

In the majority of cases, installing the right version of WinDS PRO will resolve your issue. Other SG1 opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. Additional factors include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for SG1
  • Mistaken removal of the Windows registry SG1 description
  • WinDS PRO or another SG1 application experienced a flawed installation
  • File corruption affecting your SG1 file
  • Your SG1 is infected with malware
  • Hardware associated with SG1 has outdated drivers
  • Windows cannot load your Standford Graphics File file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
