How to open RVM file?
The main problem with Revenant Game Archive is that the RVM file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open RVM, 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 RVM 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 Dragon UnPACKer
In this case, you should first verify that the Dragon UnPACKer application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Dragon UnPACKer into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RVM with Dragon UnPACKer. Below you will find a list of applications that support RVM files.
Programs to open RVM file
Remember to download programs supporting RVM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Dragon UnPACKer with RVM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RVM file still does not use the Dragon UnPACKer 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RVM file with the Dragon UnPACKer application.
Step 3. Update Dragon UnPACKer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Dragon UnPACKer program with the Revenant Game Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Alexandre Devilliers website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RVM file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the RVM file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RVM file. However, remember that not every infected RVM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RVM files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular RVM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Eidos Interactive Ltd.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RVM files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the RVM file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RVM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
