What is VSP file?

The VSP file has been categorized as Video Files. The author of this format is Corel. Additionally, the Video Files category contains 546 of other files. VideoStudio Project Format is supported by 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is VideoStudio Pro. This was created by Corel Corporation.

How to open VSP file?

The main problem with VideoStudio Project Format is that the VSP file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open VSP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

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

The first step is to check if the computer has the VideoStudio Pro program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name 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 VSP with VideoStudio Pro. Below is a list of programs that support the file VSP.

Programs to open VSP file

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

Step 2. Create association of VideoStudio Pro with VSP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VSP file still does not use the VideoStudio Pro program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the VideoStudio Pro application as the default for handling the VSP file.

Step 3. Update VideoStudio Pro to the latest version

If, despite the association of the VideoStudio Pro program with the VideoStudio Project Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Corel Corporation website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VSP 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VSP file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VSP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VSP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VSP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VSP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VSP 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 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. Copying the VSP file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VSP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the VSP file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
