Step 1. Install CorelDRAW

Programs to open CRP file
Remember to download programs supporting CRP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CorelDRAW with CRP files
If, despite the installed application, the CRP file does not start in the CorelDRAW 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 select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CorelDRAW application as the default for handling the CRP file.
Step 3. Update CorelDRAW to the latest version
If, however, after binding CorelDRAW with CorelDRAW Corel Presents Run-time Presentation there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Corel Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CRP file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to CRP 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 most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 CRP or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected CRP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of CRP 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CRP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CRP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move CRP to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CRP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CRP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CRP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
