How to open FTPL file?

The main problem with Simfatic Forms Template is that the FTPL file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that FTPL files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FTPL 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 Simfatic Forms

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Simfatic Forms is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Simfatic Forms in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FTPL files.

Programs to open FTPL file

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

Step 2. Create association of Simfatic Forms with FTPL files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FTPL file to open in the Simfatic Forms application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 FTPL file with the Simfatic Forms application.

Step 3. Update Simfatic Forms to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Simfatic Forms program, it is possible that Simfatic Forms Template requires a newer version of the program.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 Simfatic Solutions page and install.

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

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

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the FTPL file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FTPL file. However, remember that not every infected FTPL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FTPL 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FTPL file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Simfatic Solutions help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FTPL 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FTPL file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FTPL file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
