How to open VC3 file?
The main problem with VSampler Soundbank Format is that the VC3 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file VC3 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 VC3 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 VSampler
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VSampler is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name VSampler 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 VC3 files.
Programs to open VC3 file
Remember to download programs supporting VC3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VSampler with VC3 files
If, despite the installed application, the VC3 file does not start in the VSampler application, you must create a file association. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the VC3 file with the VSampler application.
Step 3. Update VSampler to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the VSampler program, it is possible that VSampler Soundbank Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the MAZ Sound Tools GmbH website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VC3 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the VC3 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VC3 file. Sometimes virus-infected VC3 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VC3 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 VC3 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting MAZ Sound Tools, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file VC3 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move VC3 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the VC3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 VC3 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
