How to open IVUE file?

The main problem with Live Picture IVUE Image is that the IVUE file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open IVUE, 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 IVUE 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 Live Picture

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Live Picture is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Live Picture 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 IVUE files.

Programs to open IVUE file

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

Step 2. Create association of Live Picture with IVUE files

If, despite the installed application, the IVUE file does not start in the Live Picture application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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 Live Picture application as the default for handling the IVUE file.

Step 3. Update Live Picture to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Live Picture program with the Live Picture IVUE Image file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IVUE file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to IVUE 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 operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IVUE file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover IVUE 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 IVUE 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 option of recovering data from damaged IVUE files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file IVUE 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. It is best to move IVUE to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the IVUE file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
