How to open LOADTEST file?

An often recurring problem with Microsoft Visual Studio Load Test is that LOADTEST is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file LOADTEST 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 LOADTEST 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 Microsoft Visual Studio

In this case, you should first verify that the Microsoft Visual Studio application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Visual Studio into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support LOADTEST files.

Programs to open LOADTEST file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Visual Studio with LOADTEST files

If, despite the installed application, the LOADTEST file does not start in the Microsoft Visual Studio application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the LOADTEST file with the Microsoft Visual Studio application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Visual Studio to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Visual Studio program, it is possible that Microsoft Visual Studio Load Test requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LOADTEST file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The LOADTEST file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LOADTEST file. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LOADTEST or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected LOADTEST files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of LOADTEST file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular LOADTEST file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file LOADTEST 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.
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. Copying the LOADTEST file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the LOADTEST file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the LOADTEST file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LOADTEST file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
