You may encounter this issue if Visio is not installed on your machine or if Visio is not set as the default program for .vstx files.

If Visio is installed and you're still experiencing the issue, follow these steps to associate Visio with .vstx files:

  1. Close Visio, if it’s currently running.
  2. Right-click the "Start eVSM" icon on your desktop.
  3. From the menu, select “Open With” > “Choose another app...”
  4. In the dialog box, select Microsoft Visio.
  5. Check the box labeled “Always use this app to open .vstx files”, then click OK. 

This should ensure Visio opens template files correctly going forward.
