Some file not opening

Good day,
I haven't posted here in a while because I haven't needed to but recently I switched from X5 to X7.1 (because it was only $25), I have it downloaded and for the most part working. I'm having a problem and I'm not sure why. I simply cannot open AI, EPS, or SVG files. I know th files aren't corrupt because I opened them with X5. With every file I get the error message attached. I've tried run as admin but it didn't change anything. I've ran debug and it doesn't show those filters as loading. Could this be quirk of the downloaded version? Any ideas about how to solve this dilemma?

Hi,
you may be going about it wrong, try importing rather than opening..and select the correct filter for the file...that could be the issue..

Try running as Administrator which has corrected similar problems. Right click the desktop icon and select Run as administrator from the popup menu. This should update the registry for the import filters. This only needs to be done once.

There were/are two updates issued for XDP7. The first one dealt with .svg exports. If you have not updated check these out"

7.1.2 http://support.xara.com/index.php?_m...news&newsid=21

Hope this helps!

I tried that, it tells me the filter might not be for the file I want to open but it still doesn't open it. Running as admin was the first thing I tried, didn't work.
