IconPackager Theme Format | Stardock | Data Files |
The .IP file extension stands for IP (IconPackager Theme File). This type of file is created by Stardock IconPackager, a utility software developed by Stardock Corporation, which specializes in customization and theming of computer systems. This program is used to change the look and feel of Windows computer user interfaces by providing a variety of pre-configured icon packages. These packages can be further configured and customized to user preferences using the program.
The Purpose of IP Files
The .IP files are used to store specific themes and icon packages that the user has created using IconPackager. They are mainly used as backup files of a particular theme set-up and can later be reloaded so that the previously customized configuration can be restored. The IP files serve as containers for the settings, graphics and other data associated with a theme package.
Similar File Types
Similar file types include .ICL, .THEMEPACK, .DLL, .ICNS, .EXE, .ICO, among many others.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .IP) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .IP extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .IP file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .IP extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .IP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .IP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .IP file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .IP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .IP file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .IP file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
