How to open H11 file?

The most common problem when using At Home Canada 2011 Tax Return is that a specific H11 is not associated with the program. This causes the file H11 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the H11 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 TurboTax

In this case, you should first verify that the TurboTax application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TurboTax into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file H11 with TurboTax. Below you will find a list of applications that support H11 files.

Programs to open H11 file

Remember to download programs supporting H11 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of TurboTax with H11 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the H11 file to open in the TurboTax 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TurboTax application as the default for handling the H11 file.

Step 3. Update TurboTax to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TurboTax program, it is possible that At Home Canada 2011 Tax Return requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Intuit Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the H11 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The H11 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to H11 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. 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 H11 file. Sometimes virus-infected H11 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the H11 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular H11 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use H&R Block Canada help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file H11 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the H11 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the H11 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the H11 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the H11 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
