Sources of RETURNTOOL Problems
Typical RETURNTOOL Opening Challenges
Missing Unknown Software
If you attempt to load your RETURNTOOL file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open RETURNTOOL Files". When this happens, it is commonly due to Unknown Software missing in %%os%%. The typical path of opening your RETURNTOOL with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.
Tip: When another RETURNTOOL application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
Unknown Software Requires Update
Sometimes your installed version of Unknown Software won't support your Uncommon File Extension file. Installing the latest version of Unknown Software from Unknown Developer is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your Uncommon File Extension file was created by a different (newer) version of Unknown Software than what's installed.
Tip: If you right-click on your RETURNTOOL file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.
Regardless, most of the RETURNTOOL file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Unknown Software installed.
Additional RETURNTOOL Opening Issues
You can still experience errors opening RETURNTOOL files even with the latest version of Unknown Software installed on your PC. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening RETURNTOOL files. Issues that aren't software-related:
- Invalid RETURNTOOL file references in the Windows Registry (the "phonebook" of the Windows Operating System)
- Deletion of the RETURNTOOL file description from the Registry by mistake
- Defective install of a RETURNTOOL program, such as Unknown Software
- The RETURNTOOL itself is corrupted
- The RETURNTOOL is infected with a virus
- Device drivers for RETURNTOOL-related hardware are out-of-date
- Too many applications are open on your PC to load your Uncommon File Extension file successfully
