How to open PLP file?

The most common problem when using Messenger Plus! Sound Pack is that a specific PLP is not associated with the program. This causes the file PLP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PLP 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 Messenger Plus! Live

In this case, you should first verify that the Messenger Plus! Live application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Messenger Plus! Live into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PLP files.

Programs to open PLP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Messenger Plus! Live with PLP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PLP file still does not use the Messenger Plus! Live program, it means no 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PLP file with the Messenger Plus! Live application.

Step 3. Update Messenger Plus! Live to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Messenger Plus! Live program, it is possible that Messenger Plus! Sound Pack requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Patchou page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PLP 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PLP file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the PLP file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected PLP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PLP 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PLP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Patchou, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PLP 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the PLP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the PLP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PLP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PLP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
