How to open WNV file?

The most common problem when using Grand Theft Auto IV NavMesh Data Format is that a specific WNV is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that WNV files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WNV 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 OpenIV

The first step is to check if the computer has the OpenIV program installed. This can be achieved by typing OpenIV into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file WNV.

Programs to open WNV file

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

Step 2. Create association of OpenIV with WNV files

If, despite the installed application, the WNV file does not start in the OpenIV 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the OpenIV application as the default for handling the WNV file.

Step 3. Update OpenIV to the latest version

If, despite the association of the OpenIV program with the Grand Theft Auto IV NavMesh Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to WNV 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WNV file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected WNV file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WNV files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WNV file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WNV 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. It is best to move WNV to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WNV file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WNV file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
