What is TDO file?
The file in the TDO format belongs to the Developer Files category. In addition to this file, the Developer Files category includes 1205 related files. Xilinx Text Design Output Data Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The main program that supports this format is ISE Design Suite. This was created by Xilinx, Inc.. Alternatively, you can use 1 other programs. The Xilinx CORE Generator System programs will also handle the file when the ISE Design Suite program does not fulfill its role.
How to open TDO file?
The main problem with Xilinx Text Design Output Data Format is that the TDO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TDO to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TDO 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 ISE Design Suite
The first step is to check if the computer has the ISE Design Suite program installed. This can be achieved by typing ISE Design Suite into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TDO files.
Programs to open TDO file
Remember to download programs supporting TDO files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ISE Design Suite with TDO files
If, despite the installed application, the TDO file does not start in the ISE Design Suite 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TDO file with the ISE Design Suite application.
Step 3. Update ISE Design Suite to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ISE Design Suite program, it is possible that Xilinx Text Design Output Data Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Xilinx, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TDO file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TDO file. 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. 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 TDO or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TDO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TDO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 ability to automatically repair TDO file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TDO files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the TDO file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TDO to close. 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.
