How to open CFGE file?

An often recurring problem with Jewel Quest Configuration Format is that CFGE is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open CFGE, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CFGE file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install Jewel Quest

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Jewel Quest is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Jewel Quest in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file CFGE with Jewel Quest. Below you will find a list of applications that support CFGE files.

Programs to open CFGE file

Remember to download programs supporting CFGE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Jewel Quest with CFGE files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CFGE file still does not use the Jewel Quest program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Jewel Quest application as the default for handling the CFGE file.

Step 3. Update Jewel Quest to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Jewel Quest program with the Jewel Quest Configuration Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the iWin, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CFGE file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the CFGE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CFGE file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected CFGE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of CFGE file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CFGE files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting iWin, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file CFGE except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CFGE to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the CFGE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CFGE file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
