Programs to open LPV file

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

Step 2. Create association of Lpv Player with LPV files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the LPV file to open in the Lpv Player 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Lpv Player application as the default for handling the LPV file.

Step 3. Update Lpv Player to the latest version

If, however, after binding Lpv Player with Laser Shows Live Preview Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the LaserAnimation Sollinger GmbH website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the LPV file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 LPV or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected LPV 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 LPV 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LPV files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LPV files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the LPV 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the LPV file again. 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.
