Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Visual Studio with VCPROPS files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VCPROPS file still does not use the Microsoft Visual Studio program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Visual Studio application as the default for handling the VCPROPS file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Visual Studio to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Visual Studio program, it is possible that Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Property Sheet requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VCPROPS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VCPROPS file. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VCPROPS or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VCPROPS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VCPROPS 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VCPROPS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file VCPROPS 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.
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 VCPROPS to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VCPROPS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VCPROPS to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VCPROPS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
