How to open SPVCHAIN file?

The main problem with MultiBit Blockchain Data Format is that the SPVCHAIN file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SPVCHAIN, 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 SPVCHAIN 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 MultiBit

In this case, you should first verify that the MultiBit application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name MultiBit into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file SPVCHAIN.

Programs to open SPVCHAIN file

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

Step 2. Create association of MultiBit with SPVCHAIN files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SPVCHAIN file still does not use the MultiBit program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 SPVCHAIN file with the MultiBit application.

Step 3. Update MultiBit to the latest version

If, however, after binding MultiBit with MultiBit Blockchain Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Bitcoin Solutions Ltd. website or update the program from the application.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the SPVCHAIN file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SPVCHAIN file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SPVCHAIN 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 SPVCHAIN file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SPVCHAIN file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SPVCHAIN 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SPVCHAIN to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SPVCHAIN 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.
