Programs to open MVY file

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

Step 2. Create association of Video easy HD with MVY files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MVY file still does not use the Video easy HD program, it means no association. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Video easy HD application as the default for handling the MVY file.

Step 3. Update Video easy HD to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Video easy HD program, it is possible that Video Easy Project Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the MAGIX AG website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to MVY files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MVY or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MVY 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 MVY 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular MVY file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact MAGIX
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MVY 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the MVY file to another location.
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. However, some background programs may block the MVY file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
