How to open DVS file?
An often recurring problem with Enterprise Vault DVS is that DVS is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file DVS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DVS 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 Enterprise Vault
The first step is to check if the computer has the Enterprise Vault program installed. To do this, enter the name Enterprise Vault into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file DVS.
Programs to open DVS file
Remember to download programs supporting DVS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Enterprise Vault with DVS files
If, despite the installed application, the DVS file does not start in the Enterprise Vault application, you must create a file association. 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Enterprise Vault application as the default for handling the DVS file.
Step 3. Update Enterprise Vault to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Enterprise Vault program, it is possible that Enterprise Vault DVS requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Symantec Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DVS file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the DVS file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DVS file. Sometimes virus-infected DVS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DVS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DVS file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Symantec Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DVS 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the DVS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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 DVS file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
