How to open VSR file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VSR 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 Microsoft Access

The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Microsoft Access in it.

Programs to open VSR file
Remember to download programs supporting VSR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Access with VSR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the VSR file still does not use the Microsoft Access program, it means no 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Access application as the default for handling the VSR file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Access to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Access program, it is possible that Microsoft Access Report requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VSR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The VSR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the VSR file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file VSR or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover VSR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of VSR 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular VSR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VSR 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 VSR 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VSR to close. However, some background programs may block the VSR file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
