How to open PPMOD file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PPMOD 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 Papers, Please

Remember to download programs supporting PPMOD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Papers, Please with PPMOD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PPMOD file still does not use the Papers, Please program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Papers, Please application as the default for handling the PPMOD file.
Step 3. Update Papers, Please to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Papers, Please program with the Papers Please Mod 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 Lucas Pope website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PPMOD 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to PPMOD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PPMOD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PPMOD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the PPMOD files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PPMOD files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Lucas Pope
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PPMOD 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.
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 PPMOD file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PPMOD 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 PPMOD to close. However, some background programs may block the PPMOD file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
