XPD Troubleshooting
Issues Opening XPD Files
Missing PlayStation
You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open XPD Files" when trying to open your XPD. Generally, this is experienced in %%os%% because PlayStation isn't installed on your PC. Because your operating system doesn't know what to do with this file, you won't be able to open it by double-clicking.
Tip: When another XPD application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.
PlayStation is Out-of-Date
It is possible that your version of PlayStation isn't able to open your PlayStation Store PSP License File file due to incompatibility. You will need to download a newer version of PlayStation if you don't have the right version. Your PlayStation Store PSP License File file was probably created by a newer release of PlayStation than what's currently installed your computer.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the XPD file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Regardless, most of the XPD file opening problems relate to not having the right version of PlayStation installed.
