How to open GQS file?
An often recurring problem with GrafEq Data is that GQS is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file GQS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GQS 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 GrafEq
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that GrafEq is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing GrafEq into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support GQS files.
Programs to open GQS file
Remember to download programs supporting GQS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of GrafEq with GQS files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GQS file to open in the GrafEq application, but you can set it manually. 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 select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the GQS file with the GrafEq application.
Step 3. Update GrafEq to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the GrafEq program, it is possible that GrafEq Data requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Pedagoguery Software Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GQS file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to GQS 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GQS or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GQS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of GQS 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GQS file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Pedagoguery Software Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GQS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the GQS file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
