How to open VLG file?
The main problem with VentaFax Logbook Format is that the VLG file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open VLG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VLG 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 VentaFax
The first step is to check if the computer has the VentaFax program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name VentaFax 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 VLG files.
Programs to open VLG file
Remember to download programs supporting VLG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VentaFax with VLG files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VLG file to open in the VentaFax application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the VLG file with the VentaFax program.
Step 3. Update VentaFax to the latest version
If, despite the association of the VentaFax program with the VentaFax Logbook Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Venta Association website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VLG 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. This suggests truncating the VLG file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VLG file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VLG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VLG file. 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 VLG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Venta Association, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VLG 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the VLG file to another location.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VLG file again. However, some background programs may block the VLG file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
