How to open GVSP file?
The most common problem when using Geocortex Silverlight Project Format is that a specific GVSP is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open GVSP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GVSP 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 Geocortex Essentials
The first step is to check if the computer has the Geocortex Essentials program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Geocortex Essentials in it. 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 GVSP files.
Programs to open GVSP file
Remember to download programs supporting GVSP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Geocortex Essentials with GVSP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GVSP file to open in the Geocortex Essentials 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GVSP file with the Geocortex Essentials program.
Step 3. Update Geocortex Essentials to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Geocortex Essentials program, it is possible that Geocortex Silverlight Project Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Latitude Geographics Group Ltd. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GVSP 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 GVSP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the GVSP file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GVSP file. However, remember that not every infected GVSP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of GVSP 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GVSP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GVSP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the GVSP file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GVSP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GVSP to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GVSP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
