How to open TPR file?

An often recurring problem with TMPGEnc Project Format is that TPR is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open TPR, 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 TPR 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 TMPGEnc

The first step is to check if the computer has the TMPGEnc program installed. This can be achieved by typing TMPGEnc 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 TPR files.

Programs to open TPR file

Remember to download programs supporting TPR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of TMPGEnc with TPR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TPR file to open in the TMPGEnc application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. 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 TPR file with the TMPGEnc application.

Step 3. Update TMPGEnc to the latest version

If, however, after binding TMPGEnc with TMPGEnc Project Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Pegasys Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TPR file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to TPR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 TPR or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected TPR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of TPR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TPR files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting PEGASYS, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TPR 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. Copying the TPR file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TPR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the TPR file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
