How to open RVD file?
An often recurring problem with VPHybridCAD Native Drawing Format is that RVD is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open RVD, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RVD 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 VPHybridCAD
In this case, you should first verify that the VPHybridCAD application is installed on the computer.

Programs to open RVD file
Remember to download programs supporting RVD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VPHybridCAD with RVD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RVD file still does not use the VPHybridCAD program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 VPHybridCAD application as the default for handling the RVD file.
Step 3. Update VPHybridCAD to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the VPHybridCAD program, it is possible that VPHybridCAD Native Drawing Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the softelec website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RVD 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. Usually this applies to RVD 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 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 RVD file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected RVD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RVD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RVD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use softelec help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file RVD 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 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. Copying the RVD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RVD file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RVD file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
