FP3 Format / How Do I Open?
Jan 7, 2009
Can somone explain to me what an .FP3 format file is and how to open it?I received an FP3 file today from a regular correspondent who always sends me attachments of text data in Word or PDF, and I cannot make it open. She doesn't think she did anything different today when she sent it. I've run RegCure, which fixed many errors but didn't help this issue. I downloaded a trial version of FileMakerPro which is in a ".sit" format and it won't open or run.

Is there a way to get Windows to open windows in the expanded format rather than drag each window individually to the expanded format?

I was going to post this on the software forum, but since there seems to be no problem with the software (WinZip) I decided to place it in here.Everytime I attempt to open my 'Unzipped' folder in My Documents (the folder every file extracted from Zip files [using WinZip] goes to on my computer) it asks me to format my C: drive. I tried to format it, and I got this error: Windows cannot format this drive. Quit any disk utilities or any other programs that are using this drive, and make sure that no window is displaying the contents of this drive. Then try formatting again.I closed all my open windows and such and tried again. I still get the same error. I really don't want to format my disks to get into the Unzipped folder (which would be pointless anyway, since formatting erases all your files, and those are what I'm trying to get back) and nothing else seems to be working.
On mouseover Windows tells me the folder is empty, and when I view its properties it's 'read-only', no matter how many times I try and keep it from being so. I've tried deleting the folder (always getting the message that the directory is NOT empty), moving the folder into another folder, and uninstalling WinZip. NONE of this works, and I really want my files back. Is there any way you can help?

I need to get my HDD reformatted with the help of a paid technician.Couple of weeks ago he used the quick format method & asked him if that would make any difference & he said really not.I have the doubts though. I kind of wonder why would Windows then give a choice if there really wasn’t any difference?

my pc died and was fixed by a friend, there are two partitions on the hard drive, what were the C & D drives, the C drive is 29.9gig and has remained unaffected. however, what was the D partition (which is now the H) is in RAW format and windows will not let me format it. i'm not worried about losing anything that may still be on it, but it's 427gig and me little C drive's getting full up fast

I was having this problem on my old install of XP, which desperately needed a new install. In any case, I'm now using a freshly installed version of XP, and everything has been running perfectly for about 2 weeks. Suddenly, this one problem reappears: The File Open / Save As dialog box (aka Windows Common Control / comctl32.dll) takes forever to open (20 seconds to 60 seconds). I just did a chkdsk and defrag, and that did not solve the problem. Also, there are no network drives connected which could be slowing things down. This happens in both MS programs (such as Notepad) and 3rd party programs (such as Firefox).

My browsers, particularly IE (6) dont always respond when I try to open them. With IE about half the time when I click the icon nothing happens. If a then check task manager IE is indeed running and taking up about 14K of memory, but it never opens. If I try opening it again another instance will just open under task manager and nothing will show up. Now if I end all the IE processes in there and then start IE again it'll be fine. But I need to get this fixed.

Why can't I get XP to open every folder using the "Details" option? I do have it set so that it remembers (most of the time) to re-open that folder with the file view it was in when it was closed, but I want XP to open every new and old folder with the "file details" view. Seems like a simple thing, but I can't get XP to understand that's what I want.

Hi, I am having a weird problem. I cannot change what programs I use by defualt to open windows files. It does not matter whether I right click on a certain file and choose open with or if I use the tools option in the folder menu. This is what happens. I want to open a .jpg file with picassa photo viewer. I right click the .jpg file and choose open with. I then click browse to locate the .exe file that will open it. Well once I click it I get sent back to the open with window and nothing has changed. The .jpg file will not open with any program that can open it and it will not add the .exe file into the window. This is a bit frustrating as I cannot change what opens certain windows files by default. This goes for any type of file I try to open with any program.

Since I can "eject" the cd through right-clicking on the drive in my computer, i was wondering if there is an "open" feature, since my new case has drive cover, like the example below:[img]http://images1.chiefvalue.com/productimage/11-212-031-04.jpgp/img]since i have an old DVD drive the button is place differently from the button placed on the case, so i'm thinking of alternatives ways in opening the drive or if there's an easier way to approach this.what do all the function keys mean anyway? (F1-F12)

Ive got a huge problem.I got a Dell Latitude Cpi off eBay with Windows 2000 and the CD. I got a Windows XP CD recently made a new install with it, it had an error so I ran the Update install over 2000. It had another error in the install but I told it to continue with the install. (Big Mistake) Now I have two incomplete installes on my laptop. I can't get on any Oporating Systems.I'll tell you what happens when I turn on my computer: It starts like normal with the Dell screen, then a error. The error says, Memory Read/write failure at 08000020, read 00EF00EE expecting 00EF00EF Decreasing avalible memory.

I have tried numerous times to re-format my hard drive on my XP desktop. Each time I boot from the CD and it goes through the normal process and then the screen goes black. The monitor is still on, there is just nothing on the screen. I have left it that way overnight thinking maybe it is working but it remains blank. No cursor, nothing.

I have formatted the drive on my laptop and reloaded the programs from disk (XP) and have a few questions.
1. Reloading the programs from disk was pretty straightforward but downloading and installing the Windows service packs, updates and patches etc took hours (on broadband).
Can I back up these updates to disk so in future I can save all the downloading time and what exactly do I save? I looked in the files and just don�t know where to start!
2. After loading the various programs from disk and a few others such as AVG, Zone Alarm etc but prior to downloading the Windows updates the disk space used was about 3Gb. After downloading the service packs etc the disk space used jumped to over 9Gb! (yet, when I add up the individual folder sizes, it comes to only 4.4Gb)
Do the Windows updates take up an extra 6Gb? And where are they hiding?

My son couldn't find the original XP cd that came with his Systemax, so we bought a new XP Pro OS and installed it. While I was working on the connectivity issue, we found the original XP cd. Since I had not activated the XP Pro, I'd like to switch to the original XP and save the new one for a future laptop.
But, when I went to install the original, I didn't seem to have much of a choice because it was about to install the original on the same partition as the XP Pro . . . so I quit, and tried to format the HDD again, but since I was using the Command Prompt, MS said that the disk was already in use so that I couldn't format it.

My kids kicked the cord for my keyboard and it came out, so when I tried to put it back in the power cord came out, then when I tried to get onto my computer I ran into this problem. I went to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307545/en-us I can't even do step one, I got to the right directory, did the md tmp then tried to copy the files. It said it didn't copy them, so now what do I do. I have the win cd, but I just formatted my puter 2 months ago, and haven't been able to get my other hard drive in to save my pics and stuff, so i really don't want to format to fix this prob.

Windows will not format. It will format in a sence, but not fully, I have a hard drive loaded with viruses, I can see them, I can see all their processes running (roughly 20) but I cannot get rid of them. I have formatted 4 times, and they are still there, I do not know what to do

My uncle was given an old Dell Latitude cpi laptop at work. Though, no discs or anything were included and the machine isn't formatted, it loads up to the password entry screen and I can't get passed this because they didn't include a password. Is there anyway to format without having a disk? There's no floppy drive, only a cd-rom.

So I just bought the HP Pavilion DV5 and it came (of course) with Vista. So I rounded up all the drivers I needed and prepared to wipe it and install XP. I have done this before on many computers.However I get an error message after it boots from the CD. I get the Windows setup screen with the blue and the grey bar at the bottom telling you what it's doing. But after that, instead of the menu I get:"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer."It tells me to check for viruses and remove any new hard drives and such.
