How to open FPLISTDATA file?
The most common problem when using Microsoft FrontPage Web Package Format is that a specific FPLISTDATA is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open FPLISTDATA, 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 FPLISTDATA 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 Microsoft FrontPage
In this case, you should first verify that the Microsoft FrontPage application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Microsoft FrontPage in it. 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 FPLISTDATA files.
Programs to open FPLISTDATA file
Remember to download programs supporting FPLISTDATA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft FrontPage with FPLISTDATA files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FPLISTDATA file to open in the Microsoft FrontPage application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 FPLISTDATA file with the Microsoft FrontPage program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft FrontPage to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft FrontPage program with the Microsoft FrontPage Web Package Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FPLISTDATA file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The FPLISTDATA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FPLISTDATA 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FPLISTDATA or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FPLISTDATA 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 FPLISTDATA files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FPLISTDATA file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FPLISTDATA 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 FPLISTDATA file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FPLISTDATA file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FPLISTDATA file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
