How to open SDLPPX file?
The main problem with SDL Trados Studio Project Package Format is that the SDLPPX file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SDLPPX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SDLPPX 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 SDL Trados Studio
The first step is to check if the computer has the SDL Trados Studio program installed. This can be achieved by typing SDL Trados Studio 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 SDLPPX with SDL Trados Studio. Below is a list of programs that support the file SDLPPX.
Programs to open SDLPPX file
Remember to download programs supporting SDLPPX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SDL Trados Studio with SDLPPX files
If, despite the installed application, the SDLPPX file does not start in the SDL Trados Studio application, you must create a file association. 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. 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 SDL Trados Studio application as the default for handling the SDLPPX file.
Step 3. Update SDL Trados Studio to the latest version
If, however, after binding SDL Trados Studio with SDL Trados Studio Project Package Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the SDL Tridion website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SDLPPX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SDLPPX file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SDLPPX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SDLPPX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SDLPPX 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SDLPPX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SDLPPX 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. 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 SDLPPX 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SDLPPX file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SDLPPX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
