Step 2. Create association of RPG Maker VX with RGSSAD files

If, despite the installed application, the RGSSAD file does not start in the RPG Maker VX application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RGSSAD file with the RPG Maker VX application.

This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Enterbrain, Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RGSSAD 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 RGSSAD file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RGSSAD file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected RGSSAD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RGSSAD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RGSSAD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Enterbrain, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RGSSAD 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the RGSSAD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the RGSSAD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RGSSAD to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
