Understanding AVM Issues

Common AVM Opening Problems

VLC Media Player Isn't There

If you attempt to load your AVM file, you experience a message such as "Can't Open AVM Files". If so, it typically means that you don't have VLC Media Player installed for %%os%%. The typical path of opening your AVM with a double-click won't work because %%os%% cannot make the program connection.

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

VLC Media Player Requires Update

In other instances, your Anime Music Video File file version may not be supported by your version of VLC Media Player. If you've got the wrong version of VLC Media Player installed, you'll need to install the correct version. This issue mainly occurs when your Anime Music Video File file was created by a newer version of VLC Media Player than you have on your PC.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the AVM file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Conclusion: The majority of AVM file opening issues are due to not having the correct VLC Media Player version installed.

Other AVM File Issues

You can still experience errors opening AVM files even with the latest version of VLC Media Player installed on your PC. Other AVM opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. Other contributing causes:

• AVM file type Registry entries are wrong
• Corruption of the AVM file description inside the Registry
• Partial installation of VLC Media Player that did not fully complete
• The AVM itself is corrupted
• The AVM is infected with a virus
• Drivers associated with AVM software need to be updated
• Windows has inadequate resources to open your Anime Music Video File file
