Step 2. Create association of Office SharePoint Designer with SPDESIGNSTM files
If, despite the installed application, the SPDESIGNSTM file does not start in the Office SharePoint Designer application, you must create a file 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. 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 SPDESIGNSTM file with the Office SharePoint Designer program.
Step 3. Update Office SharePoint Designer to the latest version
If, however, after binding Office SharePoint Designer with Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SPDESIGNSTM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The SPDESIGNSTM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SPDESIGNSTM file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SPDESIGNSTM or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected SPDESIGNSTM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of SPDESIGNSTM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SPDESIGNSTM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SPDESIGNSTM 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. 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 SPDESIGNSTM file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SPDESIGNSTM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SPDESIGNSTM file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
