How to open XTMP file?

An often recurring problem with Avid Xpress Pro Template is that XTMP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file XTMP 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 XTMP 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 Xpress Pro

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Xpress Pro is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Xpress Pro into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file XTMP.

Programs to open XTMP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Xpress Pro with XTMP files

If, despite the installed application, the XTMP file does not start in the Xpress Pro application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the XTMP file with the Xpress Pro program.

Step 3. Update Xpress Pro to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Xpress Pro program, it is possible that Avid Xpress Pro Template requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Avid Technology, Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XTMP 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 XTMP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XTMP file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file XTMP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XTMP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of XTMP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 ability to automatically repair XTMP file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Avid Technology, Inc.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted XTMP 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 XTMP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the XTMP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the XTMP file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
