How to open GDP file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GDP 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 The Scrolling Game Development Kit
The first step is to check if the computer has the The Scrolling Game Development Kit program installed. This can be achieved by typing The Scrolling Game Development Kit 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 is a list of programs that support the file GDP.
Programs to open GDP file
Remember to download programs supporting GDP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of The Scrolling Game Development Kit with GDP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GDP file to open in the The Scrolling Game Development Kit 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GDP file with the The Scrolling Game Development Kit program.
Step 3. Update The Scrolling Game Development Kit to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the The Scrolling Game Development Kit program, it is possible that Scrolling Game Development Kit Project requires a newer version of the program.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 Benjamin Marty page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GDP 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GDP file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GDP or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected GDP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GDP file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GDP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Benjamin Marty, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GDP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the GDP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the GDP file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
