How to open VWP file?
The main problem with BrainVoyager QX Visualization Setting is that the VWP file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open VWP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VWP 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 BrainVoyager QX
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that BrainVoyager QX is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name BrainVoyager QX in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file VWP with BrainVoyager QX. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open VWP files.
Programs to open VWP file
Remember to download programs supporting VWP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BrainVoyager QX with VWP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the VWP file to open in the BrainVoyager QX application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the VWP file with the BrainVoyager QX program.
Step 3. Update BrainVoyager QX to the latest version
If, despite the association of the BrainVoyager QX program with the BrainVoyager QX Visualization Setting file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Rainer Goebel page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VWP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the VWP 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our VWP file. Sometimes virus-infected VWP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of VWP 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VWP file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Rainer Goebel, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted VWP 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the VWP file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the VWP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file VWP to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
