Programs to open MVW file
Remember to download programs supporting MVW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Saber LAN with MVW files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MVW file to open in the Saber LAN 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MVW file with the Saber LAN application.
Step 3. Update Saber LAN to the latest version
If, however, after binding Saber LAN with Saber LAN Log there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the McAfee, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MVW 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 MVW 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MVW or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected MVW file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the MVW files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MVW file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting McAfee, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MVW files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 MVW to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the MVW file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the MVW file again. However, some background programs may block the MVW file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
