How to open DXG file?
The main problem with Duxbury Braille Translator is that the DXG file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DXG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DXG 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 QuickTac
In this case, you should first verify that the QuickTac application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name QuickTac into the system search engine.

Programs to open DXG file
Remember to download programs supporting DXG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of QuickTac with DXG files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DXG file still does not use the QuickTac program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DXG file with the QuickTac application.
Step 3. Update QuickTac to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the QuickTac program, it is possible that Duxbury Braille Translator requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Duxbury Systems, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DXG file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to DXG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DXG file. However, remember that not every infected DXG file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DXG file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DXG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Duxbury Systems, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DXG files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the DXG file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DXG file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
