How to open OSPX file?
An often recurring problem with Dell KACE Patch Definition Format is that OSPX is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open OSPX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OSPX 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 Dell KACE
The first step is to check if the computer has the Dell KACE program installed. To do this, enter the name Dell KACE into the 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 OSPX files.
Programs to open OSPX file
Remember to download programs supporting OSPX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Dell KACE with OSPX files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the OSPX file still does not use the Dell KACE program, it means no association. 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. 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 OSPX file with the Dell KACE program.
Step 3. Update Dell KACE to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Dell KACE program with the Dell KACE Patch Definition 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 Dell, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OSPX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The OSPX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to OSPX 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 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the OSPX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected OSPX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the OSPX files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular OSPX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted OSPX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 OSPX file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the OSPX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file OSPX to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
