What is FOV file?
The file with the extension FOV is the Misc Files file type. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files. MORSE Field Of View is supported by 1 operating systems.

How to open FOV file?
The most common problem when using MORSE Field Of View is that a specific FOV is not associated with the program. This causes the file FOV to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FOV 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 MORSE
The first step is to check if the computer has the MORSE program installed. This can be achieved by typing MORSE into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FOV with MORSE. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FOV files.
Programs to open FOV file
Remember to download programs supporting FOV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of MORSE with FOV files
If, despite the installed application, the FOV file does not start in the MORSE application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 MORSE application as the default for handling the FOV file.
Step 3. Update MORSE to the latest version
If, despite the association of the MORSE program with the MORSE Field Of View file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FOV 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FOV file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FOV or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FOV files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of FOV 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FOV file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FOV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FOV to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the FOV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FOV file again. However, some background programs may block the FOV file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
