Sources of QPW Problems


Typical QPW Opening Challenges

Corel WordPerfect X8 Isn't There

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open QPW Files" when trying to open your QPW. If so, it typically means that you don't have Corel WordPerfect X8 installed for %%os%%. Your operating system cannot associate your QPW with Corel WordPerfect X8, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: If you don't have Corel WordPerfect X8 installed, and you know of another program to open your QPW file, you can try opening it by selecting from the programs listed under "Show Apps".


Incorrect Corel WordPerfect X8 Version

Occasionally, you might have an outdated version of Corel WordPerfect X8 installed that's incompatible with your Corel Quattro Pro Spreadsheet type. If you do not have the proper version Corel WordPerfect X8 (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. Your Corel Quattro Pro Spreadsheet file was probably created by a newer release of Corel WordPerfect X8 than what's currently installed your computer.


Tip: Right-clicking on your QPW, then clicking "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), can provide clues about your file version.


Summary: Not having the right Corel WordPerfect X8 version on your computer can cause problems opening QPW files.
