Programs to open FPOPEN file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft FrontPage with FPOPEN files

If, despite the installed application, the FPOPEN file does not start in the Microsoft FrontPage application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 FPOPEN file with the Microsoft FrontPage program.

Step 3. Update Microsoft FrontPage to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft FrontPage program, it is possible that Microsoft FrontPage Format requires a newer version of the program.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FPOPEN 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 operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FPOPEN or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FPOPEN files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FPOPEN 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FPOPEN file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FPOPEN 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the FPOPEN file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the FPOPEN file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FPOPEN file again. However, some background programs may block the FPOPEN file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
