How to open PHPT file?

An often recurring problem with PHP Test Suite is that PHPT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open PHPT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PHPT 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 PHP Engine

The first step is to check if the computer has the PHP Engine program installed. This can be achieved by typing PHP Engine into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PHPT with PHP Engine. Below you will find a list of applications that support PHPT files.

Programs to open PHPT file

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

Step 2. Create association of PHP Engine with PHPT files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PHPT file to open in the PHP Engine application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PHPT file with the PHP Engine application.

Step 3. Update PHP Engine to the latest version

If, despite the association of the PHP Engine program with the PHP Test Suite file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PHPT file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PHPT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected PHPT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PHPT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PHPT file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PHPT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the PHPT file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the PHPT file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
