It is recommended to use SmartPLS to handle this file. This is a program created by SmartPLS.

How to open SPLSP file?

The main problem with SmartPLS Project is that the SPLSP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that SPLSP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SPLSP 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 SmartPLS

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that SmartPLS is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing SmartPLS into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SPLSP with SmartPLS. Below you will find a list of applications that support SPLSP files.

Programs to open SPLSP file

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

Step 2. Create association of SmartPLS with SPLSP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SPLSP file to open in the SmartPLS application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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 SPLSP file with the SmartPLS application.

Step 3. Update SmartPLS to the latest version

If, however, after binding SmartPLS with SmartPLS Project there were still problems, you should update the program 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 SmartPLS page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SPLSP file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SPLSP file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SPLSP or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected SPLSP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SPLSP 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SPLSP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact SmartPLS
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SPLSP 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the SPLSP file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SPLSP file again. 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.
