Programs to open SV1 file

Remember to download programs supporting SV1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RollerCoaster Tycoon with SV1 files

If, despite the installed application, the SV1 file does not start in the RollerCoaster Tycoon application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 RollerCoaster Tycoon application as the default for handling the SV1 file.

Step 3. Update RollerCoaster Tycoon to the latest version

If, despite the association of the RollerCoaster Tycoon program with the RollerCoaster Tycoon Saved Game file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Atari, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SV1 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SV1 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SV1 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected SV1 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SV1 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SV1 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Atari, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file SV1 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the SV1 file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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 you have to wait for the session to the file SV1 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SV1 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
