How to open DR3 file?
An often recurring problem with V-Control Import Driver is that DR3 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file DR3 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 DR3 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 V-Control
The first step is to check if the computer has the V-Control program installed. To do this, enter the name V-Control into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support DR3 files.
Programs to open DR3 file
Remember to download programs supporting DR3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of V-Control with DR3 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DR3 file to open in the V-Control application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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 V-Control application as the default for handling the DR3 file.
Step 3. Update V-Control to the latest version
If, however, after binding V-Control with V-Control Import Driver there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the VMAN page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DR3 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The DR3 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the DR3 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DR3 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected DR3 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DR3 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DR3 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use VMAN help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DR3 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. If possible, you can try to move the DR3 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DR3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DR3 file again. However, some background programs may block the DR3 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
