CP File Complications


Issues Opening CP Files

Apple Xcode Removed

When you double-click your CP file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Apple Xcode for %%os%% installed. The typical path of opening your CP with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.


Tip: Another CP-related program can be selected to open the file by clicking "Show Apps" and finding the application.


Apple Xcode is Out-of-Date

It is possible that your version of Apple Xcode isn't able to open your Xcode C++ Source File file due to incompatibility. Installing the latest version of Apple Xcode from Apple is recommended. This problem is most common when you have an older version of the software application, and your file was created by a newer version that it cannot recognize.


Tip: Investigate your CP file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Primarily, problems experienced when opening CP files are due to having the incorrect version of Apple Xcode installed on your computer.


Associated Difficulties Loading CP Files

Although you might already have Apple Xcode or another CP-associated software installed on your computer, you can still encounter problems opening Xcode C++ Source File files. There can be other issues - unrelated to software - preventing you from opening CP files. Other contributing causes:

  • CP file references in the Windows Registry are broken
  • Unintentional removal of the description of the CP file inside the Windows Registry
  • Defective install of a CP program, such as Apple Xcode
  • CP file corruption
  • CP file integrity has been compromised by malware
  • Device drivers of the hardware associated with your CP file are corrupt or out-of-date
  • Too many applications are open on your PC to load your Xcode C++ Source File file successfully
