How to open XGO file?

An often recurring problem with GeoConcept Add-on is that XGO is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file XGO 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 XGO 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 GeoConcept

In this case, you should first verify that the GeoConcept application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name GeoConcept 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 XGO with GeoConcept. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open XGO files.

Programs to open XGO file

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

Step 2. Create association of GeoConcept with XGO files

If, despite the installed application, the XGO file does not start in the GeoConcept 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the XGO file with the GeoConcept application.

Step 3. Update GeoConcept to the latest version

If, despite the association of the GeoConcept program with the GeoConcept Add-on file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the GeoConcept SA website or update the program from the application.

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

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

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to XGO files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XGO file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected XGO file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of XGO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XGO file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting GeoConcept SA, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XGO 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move XGO to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the XGO file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file XGO to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the XGO file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
