How to open VLMC file?

An often recurring problem with VLMC Project is that VLMC is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that VLMC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VLMC 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 VLMC

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VLMC is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name VLMC in it. 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 VLMC.

Programs to open VLMC file

Remember to download programs supporting VLMC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of VLMC with VLMC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VLMC file still does not use the VLMC program, it means no association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the VLMC application as the default for handling the VLMC file.

Step 3. Update VLMC to the latest version

If, however, after binding VLMC with VLMC Project there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the VideoLAN Project Team website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VLMC file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the VLMC file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VLMC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected VLMC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of VLMC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VLMC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting VideoLAN Project Team, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file VLMC 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move VLMC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
