======Crash When Double-clicking a Rhino .3dm File====== 

\\

**Problem:**

Rhino crashes when I double-click a Rhino .3dm file.


**Try:**

Start Rhino from a desktop **shortcut**, or the **Start** menu.

**If Rhino starts:**
  * Open a file from the **File** menu > **Open** or the **Open** toolbar button.\\ 
  * If the file won't open, the problem is probably with the file. Try the **Audit3dmFile** command on the file.

**Is the problem solved?**
  * **Yes**. Yay!
  * **No**. Go to //[[rhino:crashhelp:fail_shortcut|Crash Starting Rhino]]//.
