What is DCPIL file?

The file in the DCPIL format belongs to the Misc Files category. It was designed by Embarcadero Technologies, Inc.. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. Delphi Compiler Symbolic Information is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use Delphi to handle this file. This is a program created by Embarcadero Technologies, Inc..

How to open DCPIL file?

An often recurring problem with Delphi Compiler Symbolic Information is that DCPIL is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open DCPIL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DCPIL 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 Delphi

The first step is to check if the computer has the Delphi program installed. This can be achieved by typing Delphi into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DCPIL with Delphi. Below you will find a list of applications that support DCPIL files.

Programs to open DCPIL file

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

Step 2. Create association of Delphi with DCPIL files

If, despite the installed application, the DCPIL file does not start in the Delphi 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DCPIL file with the Delphi program.

Step 3. Update Delphi to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Delphi program with the Delphi Compiler Symbolic Information file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DCPIL 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to DCPIL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DCPIL file. Sometimes virus-infected DCPIL 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 DCPIL 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DCPIL files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted DCPIL 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move DCPIL to a different directory.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DCPIL to close. However, some background programs may block the DCPIL file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
