i received a file and the extension is .xpa and wanted to know if there is a program available to open the file.

Apart from that, fileext.com says it's either an extended playlist or an encrypted compressed file: Xpandata DB Transfer (Encrypted Compressed File)

Understand is a security camera at a certain location that created that file

In that case it appears to be the Xpandata file type.
says:
"It is used for transferrng email and information securely using FTP and various eSafeMail readers with SMTP/IMAP emulators."

I would assume that there is some software that came with the camera that should be able to decrypt and uncompress the file.
Googling brings up nothing usable I'm afraid.

Firstly, this is in the wrong Forum to begin with, as this is NOT an eMail issue...

secondly, the XPA file-extension is a container, which can house different video/audio codec information plus encryption. These can be viewed using the CCTV Software from the manufacturer of said system, you could try to use VLC to view (probably does not work in this case) or go to the Ubiquity Networks website and download AirVision and/or AirVision NVR software and give that a try...
