How to open VFS4 file?
The main problem with NUVICO EasyNet Backup Format is that the VFS4 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file VFS4 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VFS4 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 EasyNet-HD VMS
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that EasyNet-HD VMS is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name EasyNet-HD VMS in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VFS4 with EasyNet-HD VMS.

Programs to open VFS4 file
Remember to download programs supporting VFS4 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of EasyNet-HD VMS with VFS4 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VFS4 file to open in the EasyNet-HD VMS application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the VFS4 file with the EasyNet-HD VMS application.
Step 3. Update EasyNet-HD VMS to the latest version
If, however, after binding EasyNet-HD VMS with NUVICO EasyNet Backup Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Nuvico website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VFS4 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The VFS4 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VFS4 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VFS4 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected VFS4 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the VFS4 files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VFS4 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted VFS4 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move VFS4 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VFS4 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VFS4 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
