What is FCHP file?
The file with the extension FCHP is the Settings Files file type. It was designed by Fetch Softworks. In addition to this file, the Settings Files category includes 1305 related files. Fetch Preference is most often found on 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Mac OS. It is recommended to use Fetch to handle this file. This is a program created by Fetch Softworks.
How to open FCHP file?
An often recurring problem with Fetch Preference is that FCHP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file FCHP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FCHP file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Fetch
The first step is to check if the computer has the Fetch program installed. To do this, enter the name Fetch into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file FCHP.
Programs to open FCHP file
Remember to download programs supporting FCHP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Fetch with FCHP files
If, despite the installed application, the FCHP file does not start in the Fetch application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FCHP file with the Fetch program.
Step 3. Update Fetch to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Fetch program, it is possible that Fetch Preference requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Fetch Softworks page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FCHP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the FCHP file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FCHP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FCHP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FCHP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FCHP files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Fetch Softworks help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FCHP files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the FCHP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FCHP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FCHP file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
