How to open VRM file?

The main problem with Corel Quattro Pro Overlay is that the VRM file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open VRM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VRM 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 Corel Quattro Pro

The first step is to check if the computer has the Corel Quattro Pro program installed. This can be achieved by typing Corel Quattro Pro 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 VRM with Corel Quattro Pro. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VRM files.

Programs to open VRM file

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

Step 2. Create association of Corel Quattro Pro with VRM files

If, despite the installed application, the VRM file does not start in the Corel Quattro Pro application, you must create a file 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 select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the VRM file with the Corel Quattro Pro application.

Step 3. Update Corel Quattro Pro to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Corel Quattro Pro program, it is possible that Corel Quattro Pro Overlay requires a newer version of the program.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 Corel Corporation page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the VRM 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 VRM file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VRM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VRM 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VRM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VRM 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the VRM file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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 VRM file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
