How to open LCP file?
An often recurring problem with FARSITE Landscape Data is that LCP is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that LCP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LCP 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 FARSITE
The first step is to check if the computer has the FARSITE program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name FARSITE in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file LCP with FARSITE. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open LCP files.
Programs to open LCP file
Remember to download programs supporting LCP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FARSITE with LCP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the LCP file to open in the FARSITE 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 LCP file with the FARSITE program.
Step 3. Update FARSITE to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the FARSITE program, it is possible that FARSITE Landscape Data requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the FireModels.org website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LCP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LCP file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LCP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LCP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of LCP 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular LCP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use FireModels.org help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LCP 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. If possible, you can try to move the LCP file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file LCP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LCP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
