The main program that supports this format is Microsoft Windows. This was created by Microsoft Corporation.

How to open RVP file?

The most common problem when using Microsoft Scan Configuration is that a specific RVP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that RVP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RVP 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 Microsoft Windows

The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Windows program installed. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Windows into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RVP with Microsoft Windows. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open RVP files.

Programs to open RVP file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with RVP files

If, despite the installed application, the RVP file does not start in the Microsoft Windows application, you must create a file 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 RVP file with the Microsoft Windows application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Microsoft Windows program with the Microsoft Scan Configuration 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 Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RVP 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to RVP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RVP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RVP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RVP file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RVP files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted RVP 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the RVP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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 RVP file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
