Gurobi Optimizer Temporary appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is Gurobi Optimizer. This was created by Gurobi Optimization, Inc..

How to open ILP file?

The most common problem when using Gurobi Optimizer Temporary is that a specific ILP is not associated with the program. This causes the file ILP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ILP 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 Gurobi Optimizer

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Gurobi Optimizer is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Gurobi Optimizer in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support ILP files.

Programs to open ILP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Gurobi Optimizer with ILP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ILP file to open in the Gurobi Optimizer 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. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ILP file with the Gurobi Optimizer application.

Step 3. Update Gurobi Optimizer to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Gurobi Optimizer program with the Gurobi Optimizer Temporary 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 Gurobi Optimization, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ILP 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 ILP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ILP 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 most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ILP or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ILP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of ILP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ILP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Gurobi Optimization, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file ILP 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ILP to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ILP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ILP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
