How to open OVK file?
The most common problem when using Little Busters! Game Data Format is that a specific OVK is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that OVK files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OVK 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 LBTools
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that LBTools is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name LBTools in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file OVK with LBTools.

Programs to open OVK file
Remember to download programs supporting OVK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of LBTools with OVK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the OVK file still does not use the LBTools program, it means no 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the OVK file with the LBTools program.
Step 3. Update LBTools to the latest version
If, despite the association of the LBTools program with the Little Busters! Game Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the uppfinnarn page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OVK file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to OVK 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. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the OVK file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected OVK files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of OVK file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OVK file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted OVK 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the OVK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the OVK file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file OVK to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OVK file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
