XAC Troubleshooting


Common XAC Opening Problems

SimCity Societies Isn't There

When you double-click your XAC file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to SimCity Societies missing in %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the XAC file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


Tip: When another XAC application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


SimCity Societies Requires Update

Your SimCity Societies Game File file is incompatible with SimCity Societies because you might have the wrong version installed. You will need to download a newer version of SimCity Societies if you don't have the right version. Most of the time your SimCity Societies Game File file was created by a newer SimCity Societies than what you have installed.


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


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening XAC files are due to having the wrong version of SimCity Societies installed.


Associated Difficulties Loading XAC Files

Errors opening SimCity Societies Game File files can still occur even with the latest SimCity Societies software installed on your computer. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening XACs. Additional factors include:

  • XAC file type Registry entries are wrong
  • Accidental deletion of the description of the XAC file in the Windows registry
  • SimCity Societies or another XAC application experienced a flawed installation
  • Your XAC can't be loaded properly (file corruption)
  • Your XAC is infected with malware
  • XAC-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
  • Windows has inadequate resources to open your SimCity Societies Game File file
