What is VLS file?

The file in the VLS format belongs to the Developer Files category. The author of this format is AIT. In addition to this file, the Developer Files category includes 1205 related files. Visual Localize Script is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use Visual Localize to handle this file. This is a program created by AIT.

How to open VLS file?

The main problem with Visual Localize Script is that the VLS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that VLS 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 VLS 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 Visual Localize

The first step is to check if the computer has the Visual Localize program installed. To do this, enter the name Visual Localize into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VLS with Visual Localize. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VLS files.

Programs to open VLS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Visual Localize with VLS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VLS file to open in the Visual Localize application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the VLS file with the Visual Localize program.

Step 3. Update Visual Localize to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Visual Localize program with the Visual Localize Script file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the AIT page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VLS 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 VLS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VLS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected VLS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of VLS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VLS files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact AIT
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted VLS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the VLS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. 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 the problem persists, restart the machine.
