Notes about the CFG file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The CFG file type is primarily associated with 'Configuration'. A configuration file that is usually created when you change some settings in a program that uses .CFG files to store the settings. You should not attempt to change this file outside of the program that created it.

Cannot access CFG files on windows?

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open CFG files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

RECOMMENDED:

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
