How to open VPH file?

The most common problem when using VirtualPhotographer Custom Settings is that a specific VPH is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that VPH 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 VPH 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 Adobe Photoshop

The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe Photoshop program installed. This can be achieved by typing Adobe Photoshop into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support VPH files.

Programs to open VPH file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe Photoshop with VPH files

If, despite the installed application, the VPH file does not start in the Adobe Photoshop 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe Photoshop application as the default for handling the VPH file.

Step 3. Update Adobe Photoshop to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Adobe Photoshop program, it is possible that VirtualPhotographer Custom Settings requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Adobe Systems Incorporated page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The VPH file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the VPH file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VPH file. However, remember that not every infected VPH 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 VPH 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged VPH files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact OptikVerve Labs
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VPH files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the VPH file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VPH file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VPH file again. 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.
