How to open TVP file?

The main problem with TVP Animation Animation Data is that the TVP file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open TVP, 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 TVP 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 TVP Animation Standard Edition

The first step is to check if the computer has the TVP Animation Standard Edition program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name TVP Animation Standard Edition in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file TVP.

Programs to open TVP file

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

Step 2. Create association of TVP Animation Standard Edition with TVP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TVP file to open in the TVP Animation Standard Edition application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TVP file with the TVP Animation Standard Edition program.

Step 3. Update TVP Animation Standard Edition to the latest version

If, despite the association of the TVP Animation Standard Edition program with the TVP Animation Animation Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the TVPaint website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TVP 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 TVP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to TVP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TVP or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TVP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TVP files changes over time. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TVP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting TVPaint, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TVP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move TVP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TVP file again. 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.
