How to open HVL file?
The most common problem when using Commodore Amiga HivelyTracker Audio Module is that a specific HVL is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open HVL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HVL 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 Audio Overload
The first step is to check if the computer has the Audio Overload program installed. This can be achieved by typing Audio Overload 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 HVL with Audio Overload. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open HVL files.
Programs to open HVL file
Remember to download programs supporting HVL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Audio Overload with HVL files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HVL file to open in the Audio Overload 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the HVL file with the Audio Overload application.
Step 3. Update Audio Overload to the latest version
If, however, after binding Audio Overload with Commodore Amiga HivelyTracker Audio Module 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 Richard F. Bannister page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HVL 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 HVL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to HVL 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HVL or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected HVL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the HVL file. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HVL file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file HVL 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move HVL to a different directory.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
