How to open VS2 file?

An often recurring problem with Corel VideoStudio 2 is that VS2 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file VS2 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VS2 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 VideoStudio Pro

The first step is to check if the computer has the Corel VideoStudio Pro program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Corel VideoStudio Pro in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VS2 with Corel VideoStudio Pro. Below is a list of programs that support the file VS2.

Programs to open VS2 file

Remember to download programs supporting VS2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Corel VideoStudio Pro with VS2 files

If, despite the installed application, the VS2 file does not start in the Corel VideoStudio Pro application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the VS2 file with the Corel VideoStudio Pro program.

Step 3. Update Corel VideoStudio Pro to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Corel VideoStudio Pro program, it is possible that Corel VideoStudio 2 requires a newer version of the program.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 VS2 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The VS2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to VS2 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VS2 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VS2 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VS2 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VS2 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Corel Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted VS2 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.
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 VS2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the VS2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VS2 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
