How to open SLP file?
An often recurring problem with SpectraLayers Pro Project is that SLP is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open SLP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SLP 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 SpectraLayers Pro
The first step is to check if the computer has the SpectraLayers Pro program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SpectraLayers Pro in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file SLP.
Programs to open SLP file
Remember to download programs supporting SLP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SpectraLayers Pro with SLP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SLP file still does not use the SpectraLayers Pro 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 select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SLP file with the SpectraLayers Pro program.
Step 3. Update SpectraLayers Pro to the latest version
If, despite the association of the SpectraLayers Pro program with the SpectraLayers Pro Project 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 Sony Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SLP 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 suggests truncating the SLP file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SLP file. Sometimes virus-infected SLP 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 SLP 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SLP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Sony
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SLP 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SLP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SLP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SLP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
