How to open SPDESIGNFILE file?
An often recurring problem with SharePoint Designer is that SPDESIGNFILE is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that SPDESIGNFILE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SPDESIGNFILE 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 Office SharePoint Designer
In this case, you should first verify that the Office SharePoint Designer application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Office SharePoint Designer into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem.

Programs to open SPDESIGNFILE file
Remember to download programs supporting SPDESIGNFILE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Office SharePoint Designer with SPDESIGNFILE files
If, despite the installed application, the SPDESIGNFILE file does not start in the Office SharePoint Designer 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SPDESIGNFILE file with the Office SharePoint Designer application.
Step 3. Update Office SharePoint Designer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Office SharePoint Designer program with the SharePoint Designer file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SPDESIGNFILE 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SPDESIGNFILE file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SPDESIGNFILE or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SPDESIGNFILE 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 SPDESIGNFILE 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SPDESIGNFILE file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SPDESIGNFILE 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SPDESIGNFILE to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SPDESIGNFILE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SPDESIGNFILE to close. However, some background programs may block the SPDESIGNFILE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
