How to open file with .GAN extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .GAN file? Do you want to convert a .GAN file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .GAN

Full Name Developer Category
GanttProject Project Plan Format GanttProject Data Files
.GAN

A GANTTPROJECT .gan file is a project file used by GanttProject, the free desktop project management application. The project data within a file is stored in human readable text form, making it easy to open and edit using any text editor. Although the file format does not contain binary data nor (to my knowledge) encrypted sections, it is not recommended to open and edit a GANTTPROJECT file while GanttProject or any other applications are concurrently accessing the file.

This type of file stores project elements such as tasks, people assignments, links and resources. Data can be displayed in different formats, for example in a Gantt chart or as a WBS (Work Breakdown Structure). Additional project information such as notes or documents can also be written into the file for easy access. As this type of file stores its data in plain text form, generated process images can also be stored along with basic resource management but with only limited support since some advanced features require commercial GanttProject editions.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .GAN) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .GAN extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .GAN file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .GAN extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .GAN extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .GAN file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .GAN file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .GAN file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .GAN file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .GAN file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .GAN file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
