Adobe DNG Camera Profile Recipe File
You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .dcpr. Files with the file extension .dcpr can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .dcpr files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.
what is a .dcpr file?
An Adobe DNG camera profile recipe file is saved in the DCPR format that was developed by Adobe Systems and is generally classified as a data file. These DCPR files are affixed with the .dcpr extension and can be created, opened and edited using the Adobe DNG Profile Editor software. Adobe Systems also developed the Adobe DNG Profile Editor application as a freeware program for authoring and editing digital camera profiles (DCPs). The data stored in these DCPR files includes tone curve settings, color matrices and color tables entered by the author of the DCPR file. These settings are used as reference data when a supported digital camera loaded with the DCPR profile needs to render RAW images. The Adobe DNG Profile Editor software is implemented with features for exporting these DCPR files into the DCP format. Some photo editing programs from Adobe Systems can be used to open and edit these DCP files, and a few includes the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 software and the Adobe Photoshop CS5 application among others.
how to open a .dcpr file?
Launch a .dcpr file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .dcpr file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .dcpr files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .dcpr file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a .dcpr file will open the correct application.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .dcpr files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.
what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .dcpr. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
