ODK Troubleshooting

Typical ODK Opening Challenges

Unknown Software Not Present

You attempt to load your ODK file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The ODK File Extension". If so, it typically means that you don't have Unknown Software installed for %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your ODK file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.

Tip: If you don't have Unknown Software installed, and you know of another program to open your ODK file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".

Obsolete Version of Unknown Software

Sometimes your installed version of Unknown Software won't support your Uncommon File Extension file. If you do not have the proper version Unknown Software (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 issue mainly occurs when your Uncommon File Extension file was created by a newer version of Unknown Software than you have on your PC.

Tip: Investigate your ODK file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.

Primarily, problems experienced when opening ODK files are due to having the incorrect version of Unknown Software installed on your computer.

Other Causes of ODK File Opening Problems

Assuming you have the right Unknown Software version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening ODK files. Other ODK opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. Problems unrelated to software:

• ODK file references in the Windows Registry are broken
• Mistaken removal of the Windows registry ODK description
• Invalid installation of a ODK-associated program (eg. Unknown Software)
• The ODK itself is corrupted
• Your ODK is infected with malware
• Device drivers for ODK-related hardware are out-of-date
• Windows cannot load your Uncommon File Extension file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)
