What is TPC file?
The file in the TPC format belongs to the Text Files category. The author of this format is G&A M.C.. In addition to this file, the Text Files category includes 440 related files. Topic Connection Placeholder 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 TopicScape application is recommended to open the file. It was released by 3D-Scape Ltd..
How to open TPC file?
The main problem with Topic Connection Placeholder is that the TPC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file TPC 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 TPC 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 TopicScape
In this case, you should first verify that the TopicScape application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name TopicScape in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TPC files.
Programs to open TPC file
Remember to download programs supporting TPC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TopicScape with TPC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TPC file to open in the TopicScape application, but you can set it manually. 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 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TopicScape application as the default for handling the TPC file.
Step 3. Update TopicScape to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TopicScape program with the Topic Connection Placeholder file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the 3D-Scape Ltd. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TPC file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TPC file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. 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 TPC file. However, remember that not every infected TPC 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 TPC 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TPC files. You can restore the file from a backup or use G&A M.C. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TPC 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. Copying the TPC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TPC 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.
