Hi
I am unable to open two of five models that I have created so far. I am not sure why those two do not open in Aris Express.
Is this a problem with the file? Can I salvage my work? I have attached copies for reference. Your response is appreciated in advance.
Thanks
Dear "S Van",
ARIS Express saves models in its .ADF file format. Those files are are actually ZIP files. So you can inspect their content via 7-Zip, WinZip etc.
However, your both ADF files were not stored properly. They are both saved in the graphic file format JFIF. When you change their file name extension from .ADF to .JFIF you could open them with a picture viewer. And actually the both seem identical.
So the only way to rescue your modeling work seems to me that you remodel that content you get displayed from your JFIF picture.
Cheers

You probably misunderstood me. Your both files (BH PO SO v1.adf and BH_v1 - Copy.adf) are in fact graphical pictures, literally screenshots of your original model. Rename eg. BH_v1 - Copy.adf to BH_v1 - Copy.JFIF, and an picture viewer show your model graphic.
Cheers
