I can't open PF files from a CD/DVD.

Question Last Updated on: 1/4/2017

VERSION 9.9.0 OR LATER

PF Files can be opened directly from a CD or DVD starting in version 9.9.  You can access the files by clicking File->Open PF->Browse, then select the PF Folder you would like to view.  For example if you would like to open file 'Smith' from a CD, click browse, navigate to 'My Computer', 'LXSoftware (D:)'*, click on the 'Smith' folder, then select 'Open'.

* CD's and DVD's burned through the LXSoftware are automatically titled 'LXSoftware', if the files were burned manually, the disk title could be different.  Also, the drive letter could be different than 'D' depending on your computers configuration.

VERSION 8.9 OR EARLIER

PF Files can not be opened directly from a CD or DVD. You can access the files on the CD or DVD in two ways:

  • Change the current PF directory within the Tools->Preferences->Examination Section to the CD/DVD Drive. Then click 'File'->'Open PF', and select a PF.
  • Move the file into the current PFFolder using the 'File'->'Move PF' option . Then click File->Open, and select a PF.
