How to open SIMP file?
The main problem with Software Ideas Modeler Project Format is that the SIMP file is incorrectly associated with programs.

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SIMP 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 Software Ideas Modeler

Programs to open SIMP file
Remember to download programs supporting SIMP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Software Ideas Modeler with SIMP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SIMP file still does not use the Software Ideas Modeler 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SIMP file with the Software Ideas Modeler application.
Step 3. Update Software Ideas Modeler to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Software Ideas Modeler program with the Software Ideas Modeler Project 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 Dušan Rodina page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SIMP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SIMP 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SIMP file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SIMP 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 SIMP 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 SIMP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SIMP 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the SIMP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SIMP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SIMP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
