How to open BBV file?
The main problem with PPLive is that the BBV file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file BBV to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BBV 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 PPLive
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PPLive is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name PPLive into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BBV files.
Programs to open BBV file
Remember to download programs supporting BBV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PPLive with BBV files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BBV file still does not use the PPLive program, it means no 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PPLive application as the default for handling the BBV file.
Step 3. Update PPLive to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PPLive program, it is possible that PPLive requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PPLive Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BBV file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The BBV file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BBV file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BBV file. However, remember that not every infected BBV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BBV file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 BBV files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting PPLive Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BBV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 BBV file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BBV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BBV to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BBV file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
