File extension .OPDOWNLOAD

File description

The extension .OPDOWNLOAD stands for Opera Partially Downloaded File. Developed by Opera Software this is categorized under Misc files. This extension is used for temporary files created while files are being downloaded – until the download is completed successful. The extension is changed to the document or images actual extension once the download is 100% completed and only then can the file be used. The OPDOWNLOAD files are similar to the files used in Google Chrome (.CRDOWNLOAD) and Mozilla Firefox and Apple Safari (.DOWNLOAD). Even if the download is not completed successfully you can attempt to open these files by removing this extension and replacing with the correct file extension.

Other possible reasons why your .OPDOWNLOAD file does not want to open

In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .OPDOWNLOAD file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:

1. Incorrect version of the installed application

A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .OPDOWNLOAD file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .OPDOWNLOAD file, so download the update and check again.

2. Incorrect .OPDOWNLOAD file association with the program

Right-click the .OPDOWNLOAD file
Go to the "Open with" - then "Choose default program ..."
Locate the appropriate application
Click "OK"

3. The file is corrupt

It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
