How to open PRO5PL file?

An often recurring problem with ProPresenter Playlist Format is that PRO5PL is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that PRO5PL files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PRO5PL 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 ProPresenter

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ProPresenter is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ProPresenter into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support PRO5PL files.

Programs to open PRO5PL file

Remember to download programs supporting PRO5PL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ProPresenter with PRO5PL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PRO5PL file still does not use the ProPresenter 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ProPresenter application as the default for handling the PRO5PL file.

Step 3. Update ProPresenter to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ProPresenter program with the ProPresenter Playlist Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Renewed Vision, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PRO5PL file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The PRO5PL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PRO5PL file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PRO5PL or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PRO5PL 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 PRO5PL files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PRO5PL file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Renewed Vision, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PRO5PL 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move PRO5PL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PRO5PL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PRO5PL to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PRO5PL file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
