How to open KDEVPRJ file?

Programs to open KDEVPRJ file

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

Step 2. Create association of KDevelop with KDEVPRJ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the KDEVPRJ file to open in the KDevelop application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the KDEVPRJ file with the KDevelop application.

Step 3. Update KDevelop to the latest version

If, despite the association of the KDevelop program with the KDevelop Project Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the The KDevelop Team website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KDEVPRJ 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to KDEVPRJ 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our KDEVPRJ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover KDEVPRJ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of KDEVPRJ 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular KDEVPRJ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Free Software Foundation
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KDEVPRJ 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the KDEVPRJ file to another location.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file KDEVPRJ to close. However, some background programs may block the KDEVPRJ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
