The TPP file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the TPP files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the TPP file on each system platform.
What is TPP file?
The file in the TPP format belongs to the Misc Files category. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. Borland Pascal Protected Mode Units appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The Turbo Pascal application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Embarcadero Technologies, Inc..
How to open TPP file?
An often recurring problem with Borland Pascal Protected Mode Units is that TPP is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that TPP 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 TPP 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 Turbo Pascal
In this case, you should first verify that the Turbo Pascal application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Turbo Pascal in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support TPP files.
Programs to open TPP file
Remember to download programs supporting TPP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Turbo Pascal with TPP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TPP file still does not use the Turbo Pascal program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 TPP file with the Turbo Pascal application.
Step 3. Update Turbo Pascal to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Turbo Pascal program, it is possible that Borland Pascal Protected Mode Units requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TPP 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to TPP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TPP file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected TPP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TPP 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TPP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TPP 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the TPP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the TPP file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
