Programs to open LGA file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with LGA files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the LGA file to open in the Microsoft Windows application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 LGA file with the Microsoft Windows application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Windows program, it is possible that Microsoft Windows Application Log requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LGA file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LGA or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected LGA 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 LGA files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LGA file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file LGA 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 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 LGA file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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 the problem persists, restart the machine.
