How to open BDP file?
The most common problem when using Exchange Diagnostic Message is that a specific BDP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BDP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BDP 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 Microsoft Exchange Server
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Exchange Server program installed. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Exchange Server into the operating 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 BDP.
Programs to open BDP file
Remember to download programs supporting BDP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Exchange Server with BDP files
If, despite the installed application, the BDP file does not start in the Microsoft Exchange Server application, you must create a file 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 BDP file with the Microsoft Exchange Server program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Exchange Server to the latest version
If, however, after binding Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange Diagnostic Message there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BDP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BDP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BDP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BDP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of BDP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BDP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file BDP 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the BDP 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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BDP file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
