What is a VDATA file?

VDATA files mostly belong to Vault Manager. These VDATA files are used as vault encrypted containers that store sensitive information securely.
They work by encrypting data with a proprietary method that locks the contents until the proper decryption key is provided.
In some instances, a VDATA file may hold encrypted video fragments that follow the MP4 format.
  • If you have a file meant for vault storage, use its dedicated decryption tool to open it.
  • If the file holds video content, check if a media player like VLC media player is recommended to play the decrypted fragments.
  • FilExt.com tip: Always ensure that you use the official software and keep decryption keys safe for proper access.

    How do you open VDATA files?

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