CFL Troubleshooting


Issues Opening CFL Files

Corel WordPerfect is Not Installed

When trying to open your CFL file, you get the error "Can't Open CFL File Type". If this is the case, it's usually due to the fact that you do not have Corel WordPerfect for %%os%% installed on your computer. Your operating system cannot associate your CFL with Corel WordPerfect, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: If you have another software that you know opens CFL files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.


Obsolete Version of Corel WordPerfect

Sometimes your installed version of Corel WordPerfect won't support your Corel Flow Flow Chart File file. If you've got the wrong version of Corel WordPerfect installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the CFL file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.


Primarily, problems experienced when opening CFL files are due to having the incorrect version of Corel WordPerfect installed on your computer.


Associated Difficulties Loading CFL Files

Although you might already have Corel WordPerfect or another CFL-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Corel Flow Flow Chart File files. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening CFL files. Other contributing causes:

  • Windows Registry CFL file paths that are incorrect
  • Deletion of the CFL file description from the Registry by mistake
  • Corel WordPerfect or another CFL application experienced a flawed installation
  • Your CFL file is corrupted (issues with your Corel Flow Flow Chart File file itself)
  • Your CFL is infected with malware
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your CFL file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the Corel Flow Flow Chart File format

Poll: Do you use a computer or mobile device more often to view files?
