Opening VLD Files
The VLD file type is primarily associated with Adobe Photoshop.
What is a VLD file
For example, one type is a file used in Adobe Photoshop where the file is a Video Layer Data file. In this use, the file often uses a JPG internal format to store layered image data for video or composition work.
Another type is the file created by Vemco systems. Here the VLD file is a Vemco Minilog data file meant for data logging. It is used with Minilog Data Logger Software and viewed in the Minilogger Viewer.
A third use comes from Keyence. In this case, the VLD file holds 3D scan data produced by a Keyence 3D scanner system and is handled by VL Analyzer. For further details, you can visit the Keyence webpage.
If you have a VLD file, determining its origin is important since the same extension serves different purposes.
- Use Adobe Photoshop if the file is for video layer or image composition data.
- If the file comes from a Vemco logger, use the Minilog Data Logger Software.
- For files from Keyence 3D scanning, open them with VL Analyzer.
FilExt.com tip: Checking the file header can help identify if it uses a common format like JPG, which may indicate its proper source.
How to open VLD files
You need a suitable software like Adobe Photoshop to open a VLD file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your VLD file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a VLD file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
