How to open PGS file?

The main problem with DALiM LiTHO Vector Page is that the PGS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PGS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PGS 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 LiTHO

In this case, you should first verify that the LiTHO application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing LiTHO into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PGS files.

Programs to open PGS file

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

Step 2. Create association of LiTHO with PGS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PGS file to open in the LiTHO 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 PGS file with the LiTHO program.

Step 3. Update LiTHO to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the LiTHO program, it is possible that DALiM LiTHO Vector Page requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Blanchard Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The PGS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PGS file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PGS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected PGS 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 PGS file. 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PGS file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Blanchard Systems Incorporated
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PGS 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the PGS file to another location.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file PGS to close. However, some background programs may block the PGS file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
