What is a DLV file?

DLV files mostly belong to Danfoss Logger Viewer. The DLV file extension serves two distinct purposes.

One type uses the Microsoft Compound format and is identified as a Danfoss Log Viewer data file. It holds log data from industrial or process control systems and organizes multiple data streams. You can view this file with the Danfoss Logger Viewer from Danfoss.

The other type employs the XML format and is recognized as a Dell License File. This file carries license information managed by software like Quest Software License Manager. Details about its structure and use are available at Quest.

The same extension is used for both log data and license data. Checking the file’s internal format (whether it resembles a compound file or XML structure) helps decide which application to use.
Simple tips: inspect the file with a text or XML editor if unsure, and use the dedicated viewer to avoid data corruption.

How to open DLV files

You need a suitable software like Danfoss Logger Viewer to open a DLV 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 DLV file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a DLV file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
