What is CDPROJ file?

The file with the extension CDPROJ is the Developer Files file type. In addition to this file, the Developer Files category includes 1205 related files.

How to open CDPROJ file?

The main problem with CppDepend Project Format is that the CDPROJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open CDPROJ, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CDPROJ 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 CppDepend

In this case, you should first verify that the CppDepend application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CppDepend in it. 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 CDPROJ files.

Programs to open CDPROJ file

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

Step 2. Create association of CppDepend with CDPROJ files

If, despite the installed application, the CDPROJ file does not start in the CppDepend application, you must create a file association. 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 select the desired program. 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 CDPROJ file with the CppDepend program.

Step 3. Update CppDepend to the latest version

If, despite the association of the CppDepend program with the CppDepend Project Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the CoderGears website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CDPROJ 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. Usually this applies to CDPROJ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CDPROJ file. Sometimes virus-infected CDPROJ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the CDPROJ files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CDPROJ files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CDPROJ files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 CDPROJ file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CDPROJ 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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
