What is a VPG file?

VPG files mostly belong to Visual PROMETHEE. Primary Use:
Many VPG files are used as Promethee project files by Visual PROMETHEE. These files hold project data and configuration settings for multi‐criteria decision analysis. They are not standard text files and must be opened with Visual PROMETHEE software.
Alternate Use:
Some VPG files follow the JPEG image format, as used by ViewletBuilder. In these cases the file structure is that of a typical JPG image, and any image viewer can display them.
Usage Tips:
  • If the file is a Promethee project, open it with Visual PROMETHEE.
  • If it appears to be an image, look for JPEG header markers (like FF D8) using a hex editor.
  • FilExt.com tip: Verify the file content before choosing the proper application to open it.

    How to open VPG files

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