What is an RSP file

RSP files mostly belong to Universal Installer by Oracle. RSP is a text data file used by MSBuild. Build Engine, created by Microsoft, is a platform that's used to build applications. It provides an XML schema for any given project that controls how the software is built and processed. Most notably, Visual Studio uses this platform to store and build projects written using it.

  • Structure: RSP files are text files that contain various CLI (command-line) switches for MSBuild. It can also contain comments (denoted with the "hash sign" or '#'), and an "@ switch" that defines another response file being passed to MSBuild.
  • Special case: There is a special type of RSP file called the "autoresponse" file. This file acts as a default configuration file that MSBuild uses when it creates a new project. It must be located in the same folder as "msbuild.exe", and it defines default CLI switches to be used.

How to open RSP files

You need a suitable software like Universal Installer to open an RSP file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your RSP file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a RSP file directly in the browser:.

RSP file format:

Why is it important to know the file format? This is the only way to find out which program to use to open the file. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. If there are problems opening a file, you must first determine the file format used. Below you will find our evaluation of the RSP files:

The RSP file extension includes various formats for various programs. However, the following two file formats are common:

All other RSP files (60%) have no uniform format, often, for example, Rapport Script, Repeat Signage Presentation, DOC, certificate and Tagline.
