Issues Opening 040 Files
Missing WinFunction Mathematics
When trying to open your 040 file, you get the error "Can't Open 040 File Type". Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because WinFunction Mathematics isn't installed on your PC. The OS won't know what to do with your 040 file, so double-clicking to load the file doesn't work.
Tip: When another 040 application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
WinFunction Mathematics is Out-of-Date
