How to open UTP file?
An often recurring problem with BioWare Aurora Game Engine Placeable Object is that UTP is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that UTP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UTP 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 Neverwinter Nights
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Neverwinter Nights is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Neverwinter Nights in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file UTP with Neverwinter Nights. Below is a list of programs that support the file UTP.
Programs to open UTP file
Remember to download programs supporting UTP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Neverwinter Nights with UTP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UTP file still does not use the Neverwinter Nights program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the UTP file with the Neverwinter Nights program.
Step 3. Update Neverwinter Nights to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Neverwinter Nights program with the BioWare Aurora Game Engine Placeable Object file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the BioWare website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UTP 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 UTP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to UTP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file UTP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UTP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the UTP 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UTP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use BioWare help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted UTP files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move UTP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UTP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
