How to open TPD file?
An often recurring problem with Cyberlink TOD Video Format is that TPD is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open TPD, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TPD 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 PowerDVD
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PowerDVD is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing PowerDVD into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support TPD files.
Programs to open TPD file
Remember to download programs supporting TPD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PowerDVD with TPD files
If, despite the installed application, the TPD file does not start in the PowerDVD 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TPD file with the PowerDVD application.
Step 3. Update PowerDVD to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PowerDVD program, it is possible that Cyberlink TOD Video Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the CyberLink Corp. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TPD file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The TPD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the TPD file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TPD file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TPD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TPD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TPD files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact CyberLink
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TPD 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the TPD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TPD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TPD 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.
