The VMR file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the VMR files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the VMR file on each system platform.
What is VMR file?
The VMR file has been categorized as Graphic Files. It was designed by Rainer Goebel. In addition to this file, the Graphic Files category includes 524 related files. BrainVoyager QX Anatomical 3D Data Set 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 BrainVoyager QX to handle this file. This is a program created by Rainer Goebel.
How to open VMR file?
The most common problem when using BrainVoyager QX Anatomical 3D Data Set is that a specific VMR is not associated with the program. This causes the file VMR to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VMR 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 BrainVoyager QX
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that BrainVoyager QX is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing BrainVoyager QX into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VMR with BrainVoyager QX. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VMR files.
Programs to open VMR file
Remember to download programs supporting VMR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BrainVoyager QX with VMR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VMR file still does not use the BrainVoyager QX program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 VMR file with the BrainVoyager QX program.
Step 3. Update BrainVoyager QX to the latest version
If, however, after binding BrainVoyager QX with BrainVoyager QX Anatomical 3D Data Set there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Rainer Goebel website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VMR 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 VMR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VMR or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected VMR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the VMR files changes over time. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VMR file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Rainer Goebel
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VMR 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move VMR to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the VMR file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
