Understanding XR2 Issues
Common XR2 Opening Problems
Missing Xrecode
If you attempt to load your XR2 file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open XR2 Files". Customarily, this means that Xrecode is not installed on %%os%%. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.
Tip: If you know of another program that can open your XR2 file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.
Incorrect Xrecode Version
It is possible that your version of Xrecode isn't able to open your Xrecode II Registration file due to incompatibility. You will need to download a newer version of Xrecode if you don't have the right version. This problem is predominately due to having a Xrecode II Registration file version that was created by a newer version of Xrecode than what you have installed on your PC.
Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of XR2 file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).
Primarily, problems experienced when opening XR2 files are due to having the incorrect version of Xrecode installed on your computer.
Additional XR2 Opening Issues
Assuming you have the right Xrecode version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening XR2 files. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening XR2s. Problems unrelated to software:
- Invalid XR2 file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
- Accidental deletion of the description of the XR2 file in the Windows registry
- Corrupt install of Xrecode or other XR2-related program
- XR2 file corruption
- Your XR2 is infected with malware
- Hardware associated with XR2 has outdated drivers
- Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Xrecode II Registration format
