The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TLE 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 SGP4 Propagator
The first step is to check if the computer has the SGP4 Propagator program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SGP4 Propagator in it.

Programs to open TLE file
Remember to download programs supporting TLE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SGP4 Propagator with TLE files
If, despite the installed application, the TLE file does not start in the SGP4 Propagator 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 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 TLE file with the SGP4 Propagator application.
Step 3. Update SGP4 Propagator to the latest version
If, despite the association of the SGP4 Propagator program with the TLE Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TLE 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 suggests truncating the TLE file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TLE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected TLE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TLE file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TLE file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TLE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move TLE to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TLE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TLE 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.
