The UAV file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the UAV files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the UAV file on each system platform.
What is UAV file?
The UAV file has been categorized as Settings Files. The creator of this file is OpenPilot Foundation. In addition to this file, the Settings Files category includes 1305 related files. OpenPilot UAV Settings is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The OpenPilot application is recommended to open the file. It was released by OpenPilot Foundation.
How to open UAV file?
An often recurring problem with OpenPilot UAV Settings is that UAV is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open UAV, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UAV 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 OpenPilot
In this case, you should first verify that the OpenPilot application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name OpenPilot into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file UAV with OpenPilot. Below you will find a list of applications that support UAV files.
Programs to open UAV file
Remember to download programs supporting UAV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OpenPilot with UAV files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the UAV file to open in the OpenPilot application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the OpenPilot application as the default for handling the UAV file.
Step 3. Update OpenPilot to the latest version
If, despite the association of the OpenPilot program with the OpenPilot UAV Settings file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the OpenPilot Foundation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UAV file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The UAV file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UAV file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 UAV file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected UAV 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 UAV 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular UAV file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting OpenPilot Foundation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file UAV 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the UAV file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UAV file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UAV file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
