How to open SMBP file?

Step 2. Create association of Amazon Kindle with SMBP files
If, despite the installed application, the SMBP file does not start in the Amazon Kindle application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 SMBP file with the Amazon Kindle program.
Step 3. Update Amazon Kindle to the latest version

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Amazon.com, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SMBP 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 SMBP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SMBP file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 SMBP file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SMBP 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 SMBP file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SMBP files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Amazon.com, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SMBP 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the SMBP file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SMBP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SMBP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SMBP file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
