Microsoft Developer Studio Build Log Format | Microsoft | Text Files |
The PLG file extension is a log file used by Microsoft Developer Studio. This type of file is generally created when the user builds a project. When a build is attempted, the compiler records all the results in the PLG log file. The information stored in the log file includes warnings and possible errors that could have occurred during the building process.
Functionalities
The primary purpose of this log file is to allow users to troubleshoot any problems that occurred while building the project. By opening the PLG complaint log file, the user can view a record of processes and events like a process exit code or any warning messages that were generated by the compiler. In this way, developers can identify if there is any error that required re-configuration or debugging.
Similar File Extensions
Other related log files developed by Microsoft Developer Studio include BLG, MSG, and SLN. All these extensions keep track of computer system activities and errors with different functionalities as per their own specific fields of usage.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PLG) 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 .PLG 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 .PLG 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 .PLG 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 .PLG extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PLG file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PLG 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 .PLG file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PLG file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PLG file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
