UST When Opened, Would Be Blank

So, I have downloaded at least 2 or 4 USTs, including RIP In The Gossip Sea, and when I open the files, the file is empty. Why does this happen? How can I fix this issue, if I can?

(Gosh this was small..)

Could you link to the usts you were trying? I can test them out and see what happens.

All of those opened properly for me. Hmm.
Have you gotten any error codes? Did anything happen right before you started having the issue? Like did you reinstall utau or do any computer updates?

I did reinstall utau at some point, but it was long before the issue started. I tried re-downloading the usts, but the only one that had something in it was the ust for Irony, but when I played it, it sounded nothing like the song that played in the youtube video I got it from.

Could you post a screenshot of what the irony ust looks like when opened? And what Utau VB are you using with that ust?
What tool/software are you using to decompress the .rar files?

Here's the screenshot:SharedScreenshot.jpg
(This is before I use the VCV to CV plugin, as Renaka's VB is CV.)
I'm using Renaka Unupi Act II for the song, and I use 8 Zip Lite to open my .rar files.

So, the Irony screenshot looks to have the same tuning as when I open the ust. It's possible that the user in the video you saw changed the tuning for their cover.
I was thinking about the blank ust issue, and after some thought I came to the conclusion that the software you are using might not be decompressing files correctly. I was going to install that software and see if I ended up with the same result as you, but for some reason the windows store won't let me download it. I would suggest trying out another software and seeing if you get the same result.

I was wrong about the Irony ust . It was actually not from a YouTube video, but from a link you can find by searching up "Irony ust" in a search bar, and on my browser, it would be the either first or second link under the videos section. Plus, it might have been another song that is also called irony, as I was informed of a couple of songs that share the same name. I was able to find the ust I needed which was Irony, by scop. So I dun goofed there.

It's good to hear that issue's been solved. It seems like you downloaded a UST for Irony by Claris instead of the one you were looking for.
Have you had any luck getting the other files to open properly?

No, not yet. I'll keep trying to open then properly, as I've got a couple more apps I wanna try to open it with.
