How to open PVJ file?

The main problem with ProofVision Job Ticket is that the PVJ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that PVJ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PVJ 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 ProofVision

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ProofVision is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name ProofVision into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support PVJ files.

Programs to open PVJ file

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

Step 2. Create association of ProofVision with PVJ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PVJ file to open in the ProofVision 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ProofVision application as the default for handling the PVJ file.

Step 3. Update ProofVision to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the ProofVision program, it is possible that ProofVision Job Ticket requires a newer version of the program.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PVJ file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PVJ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PVJ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PVJ file. 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 PVJ file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PVJ except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move PVJ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PVJ file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
