What is OGO file?
The file with the extension OGO is the Misc Files file type. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files. Origin Graphic Object appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use Origin to handle this file. This is a program created by OriginLab Corporation.
How to open OGO file?
The most common problem when using Origin Graphic Object is that a specific OGO is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that OGO files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OGO 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 Origin
In this case, you should first verify that the Origin application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Origin into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file OGO with Origin. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open OGO files.
Programs to open OGO file
Remember to download programs supporting OGO files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Origin with OGO files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the OGO file to open in the Origin application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 Origin application as the default for handling the OGO file.
Step 3. Update Origin to the latest version
If, however, after binding Origin with Origin Graphic Object 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 OriginLab Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OGO 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OGO file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the OGO file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OGO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the OGO file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged OGO files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file OGO 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the OGO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the OGO file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OGO file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
