How to open EVC file?
The main problem with Earthview is that the EVC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that EVC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the EVC 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 Earthview
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Earthview is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Earthview into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file EVC with Earthview. Below is a list of programs that support the file EVC.
Programs to open EVC file
Remember to download programs supporting EVC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Earthview with EVC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the EVC file to open in the Earthview application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Earthview application as the default for handling the EVC file.
Step 3. Update Earthview to the latest version
If, however, after binding Earthview with Earthview 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 DeskSoft page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EVC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The EVC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EVC file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file EVC or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EVC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of EVC 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EVC files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting DeskSoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file EVC 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 EVC file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the EVC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
