How to open GCDP file?

The main problem with Greeting Card Studio Design Project is that the GCDP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that GCDP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GCDP 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 Greeting Card Studio

The first step is to check if the computer has the Greeting Card Studio program installed. This can be achieved by typing Greeting Card Studio into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support GCDP files.

Programs to open GCDP file

Remember to download programs supporting GCDP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Greeting Card Studio with GCDP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GCDP file to open in the Greeting Card Studio application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GCDP file with the Greeting Card Studio program.

Step 3. Update Greeting Card Studio to the latest version

If, however, after binding Greeting Card Studio with Greeting Card Studio Design Project there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Software Depot Online website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GCDP file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GCDP file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GCDP file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected GCDP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GCDP file. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GCDP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Software Depot Online
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GCDP except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the GCDP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GCDP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GCDP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
