Issues Opening GVS Files

GuitarVision Player is Not Installed

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open GVS Files" when trying to open your GVS. Usually, this is because you do not have GuitarVision Player for %%os%% installed. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the GVS file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.

Tip: When another GVS application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.

Wrong Version of GuitarVision Player is Installed

Sometimes your installed version of GuitarVision Player won't support your GuitarVision Song File file. Installing the latest version of GuitarVision Player from Open Source is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your GuitarVision Song File file was created by a different (newer) version of GuitarVision Player than what's installed.

Tip: If you right-click on your GVS file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.

Regardless, most of the GVS file opening problems relate to not having the right version of GuitarVision Player installed.
