Can't open a SCN file?

When you click a file to open it, operating system examines the filename extension.

”Can't open this file: example.SCN”。

Can I change the extension of SCN files?

Changing the filename extension of a file is not a good idea. When you change a file's extension, you change the way programs on your computer read/open the file.

What else may cause problems width open a SCN file?

  • Whether the SCN file is damaged.
  • Whether the SCN file is incorrectly linked in the registry entries.
  • Whether the SCN file extension has been accidentally removed from the Windows registry.
  • Whether the installation of an application that supports the SCN file format is incompletely.
  • Whether the SCN file is infected.
