How to open DRWPRP file?

The main problem with SolidWorks Drawing Custom Properties Tab Template is that the DRWPRP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that DRWPRP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DRWPRP 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 SolidWorks

In this case, you should first verify that the SolidWorks application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing SolidWorks 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 you will find a list of applications that support DRWPRP files.

Programs to open DRWPRP file

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

Step 2. Create association of SolidWorks with DRWPRP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DRWPRP file still does not use the SolidWorks program, it means no 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DRWPRP file with the SolidWorks application.

Step 3. Update SolidWorks to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the SolidWorks program, it is possible that SolidWorks Drawing Custom Properties Tab Template requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the SolidWorks Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DRWPRP file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the DRWPRP file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DRWPRP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected DRWPRP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DRWPRP file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DRWPRP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SolidWorks 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 file DRWPRP 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move DRWPRP to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the DRWPRP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the DRWPRP file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
