How to open VM1 file?
The most common problem when using Panasonic Voice is that a specific VM1 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that VM1 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 VM1 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 Awave Studio
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Awave Studio is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Awave Studio in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VM1 files.
Programs to open VM1 file
Remember to download programs supporting VM1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Awave Studio with VM1 files
If, despite the installed application, the VM1 file does not start in the Awave Studio 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 select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Awave Studio application as the default for handling the VM1 file.
Step 3. Update Awave Studio to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Awave Studio program, it is possible that Panasonic Voice requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the FMJ-Software website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VM1 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. 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 VM1 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VM1 file. However, remember that not every infected VM1 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VM1 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VM1 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Panasonic Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file VM1 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the VM1 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VM1 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VM1 to close. 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.
