How to open RPD file?
An often recurring problem with Roleplay Designer Data Format is that RPD is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file RPD 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 RPD 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.

Programs to open RPD file
Remember to download programs supporting RPD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Roleplay Designer with RPD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RPD file still does not use the Roleplay Designer 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RPD file with the Roleplay Designer program.
Step 3. Update Roleplay Designer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Roleplay Designer program, it is possible that Roleplay Designer Data Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RPD 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the RPD file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 RPD file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RPD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RPD file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RPD file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RPD 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RPD to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 RPD file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
