What is VBI file?

The VBI file has been categorized as Developer Files. It was designed by IntelliCAD Technology Consortium. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. IntelliCAD VBA Script is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The IntelliCAD application is recommended to open the file. It was released by IntelliCAD Technology Consortium.

How to open VBI file?

The most common problem when using IntelliCAD VBA Script is that a specific VBI is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open VBI, 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 VBI 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 IntelliCAD

In this case, you should first verify that the IntelliCAD application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name IntelliCAD in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support VBI files.

Programs to open VBI file

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

Step 2. Create association of IntelliCAD with VBI files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VBI file to open in the IntelliCAD 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the VBI file with the IntelliCAD application.

Step 3. Update IntelliCAD to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the IntelliCAD program, it is possible that IntelliCAD VBA Script requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the IntelliCAD Technology Consortium website or update the program from the application.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VBI file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VBI file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected VBI files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the VBI 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VBI files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact IntelliCAD Technology Consortium
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted VBI 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 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. It is best to move VBI to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the VBI file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
