How to open LAV file?

An often recurring problem with Liquid Audio Player Voucher is that LAV is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that LAV 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 LAV 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 Liquid Audio Player

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Liquid Audio Player is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Liquid Audio Player in it. 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 LAV.

Step 2. Create association of Liquid Audio Player with LAV files

If, despite the installed application, the LAV file does not start in the Liquid Audio Player 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 LAV file with the Liquid Audio Player application.

Step 3. Update Liquid Audio Player to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Liquid Audio Player program, it is possible that Liquid Audio Player Voucher requires a newer version of the program.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 Geneva Media, LLC page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LAV 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 LAV file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LAV file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LAV or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected LAV files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of LAV 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular LAV file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Geneva Media, LLC, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LAV 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the LAV file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with 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 LAV file again. However, some background programs may block the LAV file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
