How to open BP2 file?

An often recurring problem with AutoCAD Batch Plot Format is that BP2 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open BP2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BP2 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 AutoCAD

The first step is to check if the computer has the AutoCAD program installed. To do this, enter the name AutoCAD into the 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 BP2 files.

Programs to open BP2 file

Remember to download programs supporting BP2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of AutoCAD with BP2 files

If, despite the installed application, the BP2 file does not start in the AutoCAD 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the AutoCAD application as the default for handling the BP2 file.

Step 3. Update AutoCAD to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the AutoCAD program, it is possible that AutoCAD Batch Plot Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Autodesk, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BP2 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 BP2 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BP2 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BP2 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BP2 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BP2 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BP2 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.
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 BP2 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the BP2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BP2 file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
