How to open HFSS file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HFSS 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 Ansoft HFSS

If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file HFSS with Ansoft HFSS.

Programs to open HFSS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Ansoft HFSS with HFSS files

If, despite the installed application, the HFSS file does not start in the Ansoft HFSS application, you must create a file 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 select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the HFSS file with the Ansoft HFSS program.

Step 3. Update Ansoft HFSS to the latest version

If, however, after binding Ansoft HFSS with Ansoft HFSS Project there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Ansoft page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the HFSS file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our HFSS file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HFSS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of HFSS 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HFSS file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Ansoft
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file HFSS 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 HFSS to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the HFSS file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
