How to open VFL file?
An often recurring problem with PrintMaster Gold ClipArt is that VFL is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file VFL 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 VFL 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 PrintMaster
In this case, you should first verify that the PrintMaster application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name PrintMaster into the system search engine. 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 VFL files.
Programs to open VFL file
Remember to download programs supporting VFL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PrintMaster with VFL files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VFL file to open in the PrintMaster 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 VFL file with the PrintMaster program.
Step 3. Update PrintMaster to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PrintMaster program, it is possible that PrintMaster Gold ClipArt requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Encore, Software Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VFL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The VFL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VFL file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VFL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VFL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VFL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VFL file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Encore, Software Inc., 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 VFL 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move VFL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VFL to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VFL file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
