How to open FSY file?

The most common problem when using PhotoFantasy Image Picture is that a specific FSY is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that FSY files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FSY file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install XnView

The first step is to check if the computer has the XnView program installed. This can be achieved by typing XnView into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file FSY.

Programs to open FSY file

Remember to download programs supporting FSY files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of XnView with FSY files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FSY file still does not use the XnView program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XnView application as the default for handling the FSY file.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the XnView program, it is possible that PhotoFantasy Image Picture requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FSY file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FSY files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FSY file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FSY file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FSY files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FSY file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FSY except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move FSY to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FSY file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FSY to close. However, some background programs may block the FSY file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
