Cannot open .dn files

Report · Oct 29, 2020

Hi there,

I already tried reinstalling and sent my log file to tickets@...
So here again my problem:

My laptop meets the system requirements. Anyways I can save projects, but not open them.

It just says: "Cannot open document".

So I have to setup everything from scratch. This is unbearable, of course.

What can I do? I really need this now and cannot get any relevant info from the forum.

Thanks in advance!

What can I do?

start by share one of these Dn files for testing... that will tell us if the issue is something in Dimension or just your laptop and save pointless guess work

Thank you. It happens with anything I create. So here a .dn just with a simple bottle: https://www.weis.design/cloud/index.php/s/Jz7fXJiGTazkHWd

Hello, it's ok on my side, no problems to open it. What is your version of Dimension? Are you PC or MAC?

Report · Oct 30, 2020

It's version 3.4 and a PC Thinkpad Win10

are you storing the Dn files in a network?

try this; run as admin to open Dimension... that should bypass any antivirus issues

Hi Ussnorway and thank you very much for lending your brain power.

I do not have that option. I guess it is because I am logged in as administrator and running it on my local machine.

But here are the five parts from my log with errors. I think it is save to post this here. Does that tell you something?

Maybe someone can make something of this?

I do not have that option. I guess it is because I am logged in as administrator and running it on my local machine.

logging in as admin on local machines is normal for Windows and by default that does not run software as admin... please right click your exe and post a screengrab of the options you have

p.s, the logs you posted are normal mate

Hi there,

all those errors are normal? Wow.

Here's my screenshot. Sorry it's German. The two point with admin sign are "delete" and "renam".

the exe is inside that folder mate
Minimum system requirements for Dimension are Windows 10 64bit, as you are using Windows 7 the mystery is solved... I'm sorry Adobe help have waisted our time

1. Thank you, I did not know that. I tried starting the .exe as administrator but that did not help.

2. I changed to Win10 64bit several months ago. One of the reasons was dimension. Here is a screenshot of the requirements check. I suppose the Minimum VRAM is just slowing it down.
