An SP file may also be an update file that is part of Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1). It contains data used to update, fix, and enhance Windows XP. SP files use the filenames WIN51IP.SP and WIN51IC.SP.

More Information

Before PCs and operating systems were regularly updated over the Internet, they were updated using physical CD-ROMs. Windows XP updates were stored on Windows XP Service Pack CDs. These CDs contained a number of files and folders, including a data file used to apply fixes and enhancements to a user's copy of Windows XP. On the Windows XP Service Pack 1 disc, that file was named WIN51IP.SP (Windows XP SP1 Professional Edition) or WIN51IC.SP (Windows XP SP1 Home Edition).

Microsoft released Windows XP Service Pack 1 on September 9, 2002. It was most notable for adding the Set Programs Access and Defaults page to Windows XP, which allowed users to change the default programs used for activities such as accessing the Internet and playing media files.

Common SP Filenames

WIN51IP.SP - Update file included in Windows XP Professional Edition Service Pack 1.

WIN51IC.SP - Update file included in Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 1.

How to open an SP file

SP files are not meant to be opened. If you still possess a copy of Windows XP Service Pack 1, you can use the disc to apply the fixes and enhancements its SP file contains to Windows XP. To do so, insert the disc into your CD-ROM drive, browse to the disc in File Explorer, and double-click SETUP.EXE.
