Invalid file type errors

Opening . files

To help programs tell the difference between files they created and files other programs created, each program has one or more file types, which are usually designated by a file extension. A file extension is a short code at the end of a filename that the Windows registry associates with the program that created the file.

Why do I have invalid file type errors?

If your file associations in the Windows registry are damaged by a corrupt installation or uninstallation, a virus, or user error, Windows won't know which program to use when you want to open certain files. In other cases, the file extension may actually be missing from the file completely! The result is an invalid file type error that prevents you from opening your files.
