The VSS .VSS file extension is associated with the Microsoft Visio drawing software. It is commonly affiliated with the program because it is used to store groups of visual components, including stencils, shapes and clipart which have been created as separate drawings within its workspace. It contains a collection of designs, which can then be imported into other documents and used in various projects.
Features
The main purpose of the VSS file is to provide a comprehensive solution for creating and customizing images within Visio projects. The file also supports elements such as lines, ovals and rectangles and allows designers to modify them in different ways. Some features include the ability to add text, export the image as an SVG or JPEG and share between multiple users. The visuals that are saved can also be opened on Macintosh systems, making it an excellent choice for collaborative projects across operating systems.
Usage
The most common use for a VSS file is for source material for diagrams, technical drawings and other design based tasks. It can also be used to store assets such as clipart, icons and shapes. By reducing the number of steps required to import visuals, the VSS file significantly speeds up the graphic design process. It also ensures that images are consistent and accurate across projects and documents.
Similar File Extensions
A VSS file is similar to other vector graphics formats such as .AI, .SVG, .GIF, and .EPS. All these files enable users to manipulate images in various ways.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .VSS) 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 .VSS 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 .VSS 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 .VSS 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 .VSS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .VSS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .VSS 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 .VSS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .VSS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .VSS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
