The LPD (Lookout Protocol Driver) file extension is associated with Microsoft Windows and it is a driver file developed for controlling the communication protocol of Windows-enabled devices. In its most basic form, the LPD file extends the functionality of computers in order to host print services for these devices.
LPD Description
The LPD file type is an essential element in the networking of Windows-supported computers in a local network. This file allows data transmission between these devices in one standardized protocol format. Due to its important role in connecting computers together, some older Microsoft Windows operating systems may contain duplicated LPD files, with slight differences in their code and script designation.
Similar File Extensions
Other file extensions that are similar to the LPD file type include DRV,.VXD,.SYS and.INF.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .LPD) 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 .LPD 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 .LPD 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 .LPD 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 .LPD extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .LPD file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .LPD 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 .LPD file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .LPD file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .LPD file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
