How to open SPDESIGNTXT file?

The most common problem when using SharePoint Designer is that a specific SPDESIGNTXT is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that SPDESIGNTXT 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 SPDESIGNTXT 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. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Office SharePoint Designer in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file SPDESIGNTXT.

Programs to open SPDESIGNTXT file

Remember to download programs supporting SPDESIGNTXT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Office SharePoint Designer with SPDESIGNTXT files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SPDESIGNTXT file still does not use the Office SharePoint Designer program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Office SharePoint Designer application as the default for handling the SPDESIGNTXT file.

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. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Microsoft Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SPDESIGNTXT 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 SPDESIGNTXT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SPDESIGNTXT file. 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 SPDESIGNTXT file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SPDESIGNTXT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SPDESIGNTXT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SPDESIGNTXT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SPDESIGNTXT 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 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. If possible, you can try to move the SPDESIGNTXT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
