The VEM file type is the abbreviation for Virtual Expander Compressed File and is used by the popular file compression utility WinRAR. The VEM extension is used at the end of all archived files that are created as a result of using WinRAR's proprietary data compression algorithm. This file extension is helpful when sending multiple large files, as it reduces the size of each file so that multiple files can be sent within a small amount of time.
File Compression Algorithm & Structure
The VEM file type uses a lossless data compression algorithm in order to reduce the size of large files while preserving their integrity. This algorithm works by examining the byte-level data stored within a given file and referencing it against other known patterns to replace duplicated or repetitive pieces of data with existing code sequences. Additionally, the VEM extension uses an advanced compression structure that is able to traverse multiple streams of data within the same archive, allowing for easier optimization of certain specific types of documents such as images.
Similar File Extension
Some other common file extensions that use similar data compression algorithms include .rar, .7z, .zip, .arj, and .tar.gz. By utilizing similar techniques to reduce the size of files or archives, these file extensions provide powerful tools for data storage and transfer.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .VEM) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .VEM extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .VEM file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .VEM extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .VEM extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .VEM file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .VEM file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .VEM file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .VEM file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .VEM file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
