the STORE command is used to create QVDs, Execute a script that has the store command in it and that is the only way to create the format.

What do you mean by "my QVD format is changed in my system" ?

change extension of file to .QVD by renaming.

For example, if you QVD file is in 'filename.q' , change it to 'filename.QVD'

Is it possible the STORE command was used as TXT (syntax pasted below)  When you say "notepad format' did you mean its a .TXT ?

Either way you need to load the TXT into the script as a table and then store that table as a QVD.

You might have open the QVD like Open with some other file format.

For example if you open with text it will show in txt format.

As far as I know it won't be any issue if it change the format to other.

What would you say?
