Programs to open LGH file

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

Step 2. Create association of ReportBuilder with LGH files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LGH file still does not use the ReportBuilder 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 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 LGH file with the ReportBuilder program.

Step 3. Update ReportBuilder to the latest version

If, however, after binding ReportBuilder with HMI Historical Log Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the LGH file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LGH or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected LGH 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 LGH file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LGH file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LGH files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 LGH file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the LGH file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
