How to open OSCD file?

The main problem with TouchOSC Interface Editor Template is that the OSCD file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that OSCD files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OSCD 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 TouchOSC

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that TouchOSC is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TouchOSC 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. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open OSCD files.

Programs to open OSCD file

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

Step 2. Create association of TouchOSC with OSCD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the OSCD file to open in the TouchOSC application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the OSCD file with the TouchOSC program.

Step 3. Update TouchOSC to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TouchOSC program, it is possible that TouchOSC Interface Editor Template requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the hexler website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OSCD file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the OSCD file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected OSCD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the OSCD file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular OSCD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use hexler help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OSCD 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 OSCD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the OSCD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the OSCD file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
