What is PCMP file?
The PCMP file has been categorized as Misc Files. The creator of this file is ABB Group. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files.

The main program that supports this format is PCM600. This was created by ABB Group.
How to open PCMP file?
The most common problem when using ABB PCM600 Project is that a specific PCMP is not associated with the program. This causes the file PCMP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PCMP 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 PCM600
The first step is to check if the computer has the PCM600 program installed. This can be achieved by typing PCM600 into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file PCMP.
Programs to open PCMP file
Remember to download programs supporting PCMP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PCM600 with PCMP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PCMP file to open in the PCM600 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 PCMP file with the PCM600 program.
Step 3. Update PCM600 to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PCM600 program, it is possible that ABB PCM600 Project requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ABB Group website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PCMP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PCMP file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PCMP or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PCMP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PCMP file. 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PCMP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use ABB Group help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PCMP 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move PCMP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PCMP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
