Programs to open DOLPHINVIEW file

Step 2. Create association of Dolphin with DOLPHINVIEW files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DOLPHINVIEW file to open in the Dolphin application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DOLPHINVIEW file with the Dolphin application.
Step 3. Update Dolphin to the latest version
If, however, after binding Dolphin with Dolphin Folder View Settings Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Dolphin Team website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DOLPHINVIEW file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The DOLPHINVIEW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to DOLPHINVIEW 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 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 DOLPHINVIEW file. Sometimes virus-infected DOLPHINVIEW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DOLPHINVIEW 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair DOLPHINVIEW file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Dolphin help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DOLPHINVIEW 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DOLPHINVIEW to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the DOLPHINVIEW file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
