Issue: You Can't Open DPB Files

You might've double-clicked on the file, to be greeted with the "Choose a program to open the file" message. In some cases, you might be able to open the file, but the contents may seem garbled and that's because it was written to be opened in a specific program. Of course, you can't open a DPB file with just any software. Not to worry - we have you covered!

Step 1: Find Out Which Software Uses DPB Files

Computer Files

Opening your DPB file starts with understanding which software uses a DPB extension. In many cases, different types of software may use the same file extensions, also known as file associations.

Dataplore Signals, Fax Master File, and DataPilot Database are the most popular software packages that use DPB files. Therefore, your best bet would be to download one of these software packages and use one of them to open your file.

Zipped files tend to require special handling and may require password access. Contact the file owner or the person who gave you the file for the password and unzip the file before attempting to open the contents.

Step 2: Learning More About DPB "File Type"

If you can't download Dataplore Signals, Fax Master File, or DataPilot Database software, or if they don't work to open your DPB file, you may be able to use the file type as a clue to finding out how you can open it. Using a Windows PC, you can right-click and navigate to "Properties" and then to "Type of file". On a Mac, select "More info" and "Kind".

Most likely, you will find that DPB files are considered Misc Files. Because many programs packages utilize Misc Files, you might be able to find a program on your computer that handles those types of files.

If that still does not work, you may have to contact the associated software developer to find out how to open it. Unless you know the specific developer, you could contact one of these developers for assistance.
