Step 2. Create association of AVG Internet Security with AVGFV files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AVGFV file still does not use the AVG Internet Security program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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.

In this case, use the AVG Technologies (Grisoft) website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the AVGFV file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AVGFV or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected AVGFV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the AVGFV file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AVGFV files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AVGFV 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the AVGFV file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the AVGFV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the AVGFV file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
