How to open HKV file?
The most common problem when using Eyesight IP Camera Video Format is that a specific HKV is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that HKV files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HKV 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 SYSM Monitor
In this case, you should first verify that the SYSM Monitor application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SYSM Monitor in it. 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 HKV.
Programs to open HKV file
Remember to download programs supporting HKV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SYSM Monitor with HKV files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HKV file to open in the SYSM Monitor 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. 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. 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 SYSM Monitor application as the default for handling the HKV file.
Step 3. Update SYSM Monitor to the latest version
If, however, after binding SYSM Monitor with Eyesight IP Camera Video Format 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 EazzyDV Electric Ltd. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HKV 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to HKV files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HKV file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HKV 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 HKV files changes over time. 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair HKV 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 can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file HKV 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.
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 HKV file to another location.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HKV to close. However, some background programs may block the HKV file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
