How to open P2V file?
An often recurring problem with PLAN2VIZ Backup Design Plan is that P2V is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open P2V, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the P2V 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 PLAN2VIZ
The first step is to check if the computer has the PLAN2VIZ program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PLAN2VIZ in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file P2V with PLAN2VIZ. Below you will find a list of applications that support P2V files.
Programs to open P2V file
Remember to download programs supporting P2V files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PLAN2VIZ with P2V files
If, despite the installed application, the P2V file does not start in the PLAN2VIZ 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 select the desired program. 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 PLAN2VIZ application as the default for handling the P2V file.
Step 3. Update PLAN2VIZ to the latest version
If, despite the association of the PLAN2VIZ program with the PLAN2VIZ Backup Design Plan 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 3d-in-berlin.de page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the P2V file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The P2V file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to P2V 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our P2V file. Sometimes virus-infected P2V files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the P2V files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular P2V file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting 3d-in-berlin.de, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted P2V 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.
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 P2V 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 you have to wait for the session to the file P2V to close. However, some background programs may block the P2V file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
