Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with BV2 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BV2 file still does not use the WordPerfect Office 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.

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BV2 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BV2 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BV2 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BV2 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BV2 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Corel Corporation
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BV2 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move BV2 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BV2 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BV2 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
