How to open HVD file?

An often recurring problem with HoverDesk Theme is that HVD is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that HVD files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HVD 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 ZipZag

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ZipZag is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ZipZag 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. Below is a list of programs that support the file HVD.

Programs to open HVD file

Remember to download programs supporting HVD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ZipZag with HVD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HVD file to open in the ZipZag application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ZipZag application as the default for handling the HVD file.

Step 3. Update ZipZag to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ZipZag program with the HoverDesk Theme file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Gabriel Valentin Cristescu website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HVD 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 HVD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the HVD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our HVD file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HVD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of HVD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged HVD files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Thibaun Dijan
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file HVD 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the HVD file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the HVD file again. However, some background programs may block the HVD file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
