The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GP1 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.

Programs to open GP1 file

Remember to download programs supporting GP1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Street Atlas USA with GP1 files

If, despite the installed application, the GP1 file does not start in the Street Atlas USA application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed.

Step 3. Update Street Atlas USA to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Street Atlas USA program with the Street Atlas GPS Log file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the DeLorme page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GP1 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 suggests truncating the GP1 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GP1 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected GP1 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 GP1 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GP1 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting DeLorme, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GP1 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 GP1 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GP1 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
