ALP File Complications
Common ALP Opening Problems
Missing AnyLogic
If you attempt to load your ALP file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open ALP Files". Customarily, this means that AnyLogic is not installed on %%os%%. The OS won't know what to do with your ALP file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.
Tip: When another ALP application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
Wrong Version of AnyLogic is Installed
In other instances, your AnyLogic Project File file version may not be supported by your version of AnyLogic. You will need to download a newer version of AnyLogic if you don't have the right version. The primary cause of this problem is that your AnyLogic Project File file was created by a different (newer) version of AnyLogic than what's installed.
Tip: Investigate your ALP file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.
Conclusion: The majority of ALP file opening issues are due to not having the correct AnyLogic version installed.

- AnyLogic or another ALP application experienced a flawed installation
