What is CLV file?

The file with the extension CLV is the Settings Files file type. The creator of this file is Ilgam Zulkorneev. In addition to this file, the Settings Files category includes 1305 related files. QIP Visible List is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is QIP. This was created by Ilgam Zulkorneev.

How to open CLV file?

The main problem with QIP Visible List is that the CLV file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open CLV, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CLV 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 QIP

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that QIP is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name QIP into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CLV files.

Programs to open CLV file

Remember to download programs supporting CLV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of QIP with CLV files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CLV file to open in the QIP application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the QIP application as the default for handling the CLV file.

Step 3. Update QIP to the latest version

If, despite the association of the QIP program with the QIP Visible List file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Ilgam Zulkorneev website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CLV 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the CLV file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. 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 CLV file. Sometimes virus-infected CLV 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 CLV 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CLV files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Ilgam Zulkorneev, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CLV 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the CLV file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CLV file again. However, some background programs may block the CLV file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
