Step 2. Create association of e.Report Designer Pro with ROV files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ROV file still does not use the e.Report Designer Pro program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ROV file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ROV file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ROV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ROV 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ROV file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ROV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ROV to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ROV file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ROV file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
