How to open SLV file?

An often recurring problem with Silva Import And Export is that SLV is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open SLV, 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 SLV 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 Silva

The first step is to check if the computer has the Silva program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Silva in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SLV files.

Programs to open SLV file

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

Step 2. Create association of Silva with SLV files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SLV file to open in the Silva application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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 Silva application as the default for handling the SLV file.

Step 3. Update Silva to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Silva program, it is possible that Silva Import And Export requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Infrae page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SLV 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 SLV 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SLV file. However, remember that not every infected SLV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of SLV 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.
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 SLV files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Infrae, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SLV files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 SLV 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SLV file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SLV file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
