How to open MBFAVS file?

The most common problem when using Stardent AVS X Bitmap Image is that a specific MBFAVS is not associated with the program. This causes the file MBFAVS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the MBFAVS file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install XnView

The first step is to check if the computer has the XnView program installed. To do this, enter the name XnView into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file MBFAVS.

Programs to open MBFAVS file

Remember to download programs supporting MBFAVS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of XnView with MBFAVS files

If, despite the installed application, the MBFAVS file does not start in the XnView application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XnView application as the default for handling the MBFAVS file.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

If, despite the association of the XnView program with the Stardent AVS X Bitmap Image file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MBFAVS file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The MBFAVS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the MBFAVS file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MBFAVS or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MBFAVS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of MBFAVS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MBFAVS file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file MBFAVS except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the MBFAVS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the MBFAVS file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
