How to open VIP file?
The most common problem when using Stitch Pattern Format is that a specific VIP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that VIP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VIP 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 Embird Suite
The first step is to check if the computer has the Embird Suite program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Embird Suite in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VIP files.
Programs to open VIP file
Remember to download programs supporting VIP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Embird Suite with VIP files
If, despite the installed application, the VIP file does not start in the Embird Suite 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Embird Suite application as the default for handling the VIP file.
Step 3. Update Embird Suite to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Embird Suite program, it is possible that Stitch Pattern Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VIP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to VIP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VIP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected VIP 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 VIP files changes over time. 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VIP files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VIP 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. Copying the VIP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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 VIP file again. 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.
