Step 2. Create association of VCD Menu Lite with VMENU files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VMENU file to open in the VCD Menu Lite 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. 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 VMENU file with the VCD Menu Lite program.
Step 3. Update VCD Menu Lite to the latest version
If, despite the association of the VCD Menu Lite program with the VCD Menu Lite Data 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 Briggs Softworks website and install the latest version.
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The VMENU file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the VMENU file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VMENU or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected VMENU files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the VMENU 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VMENU file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file VMENU 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the VMENU file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VMENU file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VMENU file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VMENU file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
