Komodo Template Format appears on 3 operating systems as a functional file.

You can use Komodo Edit, Komodo Professional in case Komodo IDE cannot be used.
How to open KPZ file?
The main problem with Komodo Template Format is that the KPZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file KPZ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the KPZ 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 Komodo IDE
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Komodo IDE is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Komodo IDE into the system search engine. 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 KPZ files.
Programs to open KPZ file
Remember to download programs supporting KPZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Komodo IDE with KPZ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the KPZ file to open in the Komodo IDE application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the KPZ file with the Komodo IDE program.
Step 3. Update Komodo IDE to the latest version
If, however, after binding Komodo IDE with Komodo Template Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KPZ file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to KPZ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our KPZ file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover KPZ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of KPZ 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.
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 KPZ file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KPZ 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move KPZ to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
