Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BVL 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 BVL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to BVL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BVL or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BVL files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BVL 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BVL file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Micrografx, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BVL files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the BVL file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BVL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BVL file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
