How to open 4PP file?
An often recurring problem with PhotoParade Slideshow is that 4PP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file 4PP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 4PP 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 PhotoParade
The first step is to check if the computer has the PhotoParade program installed. To do this, enter the name PhotoParade 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 4PP.
Programs to open 4PP file
Remember to download programs supporting 4PP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PhotoParade with 4PP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 4PP file still does not use the PhotoParade program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the 4PP file with the PhotoParade application.
Step 3. Update PhotoParade to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PhotoParade program, it is possible that PhotoParade Slideshow requires a newer version of the program.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 Callisto Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 4PP file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 4PP file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 4PP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 4PP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of 4PP 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 4PP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Callisto Corporation
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file 4PP 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. If possible, you can try to move the 4PP file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 4PP file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
