This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu.

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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the GameSalad Creator application as the default for handling the GSPROJ file.
Step 3. Update GameSalad Creator to the latest version

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GSPROJ file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the GSPROJ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 GSPROJ file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GSPROJ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of GSPROJ 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GSPROJ file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GSPROJ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move GSPROJ to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GSPROJ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GSPROJ to close. 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.
