What is a SCDOC file?
SCDOC is an extension given to files that are used by a software called SpaceClaim. It is a CAM type application by SpaceClaim Corporation for the design and modeling of 3D elements. It works under the control of Windows.
SCDOC is a format specially developed for SpaceClaim. The structure of SCDOC files is the same as that of ZIP archives. These files, in turn, store compressed data in XML format used in the project. This is information about individual elements of such a document, e.g. planes or edges.

How to open SCDOC files
If you cannot open the SCDOC file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports SCDOC among those that are installed on your device.
A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the SCDOC file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.
Possible problems with the SCDOC format files
The inability to open and operate the SCDOC file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the SpaceClaim 3D CAD file. Below is a list of possible problems.
- Corruption of a SCDOC file which is being opened
- Incorrect links to the SCDOC file in registry entries.
- Accidental deletion of the description of the SCDOC from the Windows registry
- Incomplete installation of an application that supports the SCDOC format
- The SCDOC file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
- The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the SCDOC file.
- Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a SCDOC file are out of date.
If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the SCDOC file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the SCDOC file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the SCDOC file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

How to associate the file with an installed software?
If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.SCDOC) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected SCDOC file. From the drop-down menu select "Choose default program", then click "Browse" and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the SCDOC file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.
Is there one way to open unknown files?
Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. SCDOC) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.
