How to open SLDGTOLFVT file?

The most common problem when using SolidWorks Geometric Tolerance Style is that a specific SLDGTOLFVT is not associated with the program. This causes the file SLDGTOLFVT to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SLDGTOLFVT 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 SolidWorks

The first step is to check if the computer has the SolidWorks program installed. To do this, enter the name SolidWorks 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 SLDGTOLFVT with SolidWorks. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SLDGTOLFVT files.

Programs to open SLDGTOLFVT file

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

Step 2. Create association of SolidWorks with SLDGTOLFVT files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SLDGTOLFVT file still does not use the SolidWorks 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SLDGTOLFVT file with the SolidWorks application.

Step 3. Update SolidWorks to the latest version

If, however, after binding SolidWorks with SolidWorks Geometric Tolerance Style 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 SolidWorks Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SLDGTOLFVT file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SLDGTOLFVT file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SLDGTOLFVT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected SLDGTOLFVT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SLDGTOLFVT 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 SLDGTOLFVT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use SolidWorks Corporation help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SLDGTOLFVT 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SLDGTOLFVT file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the SLDGTOLFVT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SLDGTOLFVT file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SLDGTOLFVT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
