How to open SV3 file?
An often recurring problem with RollerCoaster Tycoon Saved Game Format is that SV3 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open SV3, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SV3 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 Roller Coaster Tycoon
In this case, you should first verify that the Roller Coaster Tycoon application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Roller Coaster Tycoon into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SV3 files.
Programs to open SV3 file
Remember to download programs supporting SV3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Roller Coaster Tycoon with SV3 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SV3 file still does not use the Roller Coaster Tycoon program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Roller Coaster Tycoon application as the default for handling the SV3 file.
Step 3. Update Roller Coaster Tycoon to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Roller Coaster Tycoon program, it is possible that RollerCoaster Tycoon Saved Game Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Chris Sawyer website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SV3 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the SV3 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SV3 file. However, remember that not every infected SV3 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of SV3 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SV3 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file SV3 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 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. Copying the SV3 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SV3 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
