How to open SV5 file?
The most common problem when using BigJig Saved Puzzle is that a specific SV5 is not associated with the program. This causes the file SV5 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SV5 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 BigJig
The first step is to check if the computer has the BigJig program installed. This can be achieved by typing BigJig into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support SV5 files.
Programs to open SV5 file
Remember to download programs supporting SV5 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BigJig with SV5 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SV5 file to open in the BigJig application, but you can set it manually. 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 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 BigJig application as the default for handling the SV5 file.
Step 3. Update BigJig to the latest version
If, however, after binding BigJig with BigJig Saved Puzzle there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SV5 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to SV5 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SV5 file. Sometimes virus-infected SV5 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of SV5 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 SV5 file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SV5 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the SV5 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SV5 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
