Programs to open VPE file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe After Effects with VPE files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VPE file to open in the Adobe After Effects application, but you can set it manually. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the VPE file with the Adobe After Effects application.

Step 3. Update Adobe After Effects to the latest version

If, however, after binding Adobe After Effects with Photoshop Vanishing Point Export Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The VPE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VPE file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VPE file. Sometimes virus-infected VPE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of VPE 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VPE file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VPE 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the VPE file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VPE to close. However, some background programs may block the VPE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
