The GVN file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the GVN files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the GVN file on each system platform.
What is GVN file?
The file in the GVN format belongs to the GIS Files category. It was designed by GeoVisu Development Team. Additionally, the GIS Files category contains 255 of other files. GeoVisu Navigation Data appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use GeoVisu to handle this file. This is a program created by GeoVisu Development Team.
How to open GVN file?
The most common problem when using GeoVisu Navigation Data is that a specific GVN is not associated with the program. This causes the file GVN 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 GVN 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 GeoVisu
In this case, you should first verify that the GeoVisu application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing GeoVisu into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open GVN files.
Programs to open GVN file
Remember to download programs supporting GVN files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of GeoVisu with GVN files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GVN file still does not use the GeoVisu program, it means no association. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GVN file with the GeoVisu program.
Step 3. Update GeoVisu to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the GeoVisu program, it is possible that GeoVisu Navigation Data requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the GeoVisu Development Team website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GVN file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The GVN file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to GVN files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GVN file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GVN files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GVN files changes over time. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GVN file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use GeoVisu Development Team help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GVN 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the GVN file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GVN 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GVN file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
