How to open VIEW file?
An often recurring problem with GOM Atos Scanner is that VIEW is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open VIEW, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VIEW 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 Rapidform Explorer
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Rapidform Explorer is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Rapidform Explorer into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file VIEW.
Programs to open VIEW file
Remember to download programs supporting VIEW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Rapidform Explorer with VIEW files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VIEW file still does not use the Rapidform Explorer program, it means no association. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Rapidform Explorer application as the default for handling the VIEW file.
Step 3. Update Rapidform Explorer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Rapidform Explorer program, it is possible that GOM Atos Scanner requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Rapidform, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VIEW 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to VIEW files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VIEW file. Sometimes virus-infected VIEW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VIEW 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VIEW files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VIEW files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the VIEW file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VIEW file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
