The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RVMAT 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 ArmA: Armed Assault

Programs to open RVMAT file
Remember to download programs supporting RVMAT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ArmA: Armed Assault with RVMAT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RVMAT file still does not use the ArmA: Armed Assault program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RVMAT file with the ArmA: Armed Assault program.
Step 3. Update ArmA: Armed Assault to the latest version
If, however, after binding ArmA: Armed Assault with Armed Assault Texture there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Bohemia Interactive website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RVMAT file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The RVMAT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the RVMAT file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RVMAT or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RVMAT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RVMAT 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RVMAT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Bohemia Interactive help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RVMAT 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RVMAT to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RVMAT to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
