TextPad macro file
File type: Source code and script file
A .tpm file is a macro file used by TextPad, a text editor for Microsoft Windows.
It contains recorded or defined commands that TextPad can run to automate editing tasks and other actions in the program.
Found 4 different file type records with the same tpm filename suffix.

The TPM file format is associated with TextPad, developed by Helios Software Solutions. A .tpm file stores a TextPad macro rather than an ordinary text document.
TextPad macros automate sequences of commands, which can help repeat editing operations and other tasks. The macro file is used with TextPad's macro features and is not a general-purpose script format.
TextPad and its TPM macro files are intended for Microsoft Windows.
Open the .tpm file in TextPad on Microsoft Windows. TextPad can load the macro so it can be run or managed through the program's macro features.
If the file does not load as a macro, use TextPad's macro commands to import or open it rather than treating it as a regular document.
There is no standard conversion for a TextPad macro file. A .tpm file is designed to be used by TextPad, not converted into a document or another general-purpose format.
To use the macro in different software, recreate its commands manually in that software's own macro or scripting format.

The TPM format belongs to CrazyTalk, a Windows application from Reallusion for creating animated talking characters and digital content.
A TPM file contains model data that CrazyTalk uses when working with a character. It is an application-specific resource rather than a general-purpose graphics or 3D interchange format.
Open the .tpm file from within Reallusion CrazyTalk on Microsoft Windows. If double-clicking the file does not work, start CrazyTalk and use its open or import command.
To use the character in another application, render or export the resulting animation from CrazyTalk in a format supported by the destination application. This produces media output rather than a converted, editable TPM model.

IBM Rational Software Architect, from IBM, is a software development and modeling environment. A TPM file belongs to its model-transformation features and contains parameters that control how a transformation is performed.
The file is an application-specific project or workspace resource rather than a general-purpose document. IBM Rational Software Architect uses it together with the related models and transformation definitions in the project.
IBM Rational Software Architect is available on multiple platforms. The TPM format is intended for use within that software and is not a general interchange format.
Open a TPM file in IBM Rational Software Architect on a platform supported by the installed version. It is normally opened from the relevant RSA project or workspace rather than as a standalone document.
If the file does not open directly, import or restore the project containing it, then access the transformation configuration from within IBM Rational Software Architect.
TPM files are application-specific, so conversion to a general file format is not usually applicable.
To move the settings, use IBM Rational Software Architect's project or model export facilities where available. Otherwise, open the original project in RSA and recreate the transformation configuration in the destination project.

The tpm file extension is related to Microsoft BitLocker , a program from Microsoft Windows operating system used to encrypt sensitive data and used for files that contain encrypted password data.
Probably not meant to be accessed by the user.
Probably cannot be converted to anything else.
