How to open AVSI file?

The most common problem when using Avisynth Script is that a specific AVSI is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open AVSI, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AVSI 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 Avisynth

Programs to open AVSI file

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

Step 2. Create association of Avisynth with AVSI files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AVSI file still does not use the Avisynth program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the AVSI file with the Avisynth program.

Step 3. Update Avisynth to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Avisynth program with the Avisynth Script file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Ben Rudiak-Gould and all subsequent developers website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AVSI 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AVSI file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AVSI file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AVSI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the AVSI file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AVSI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Ben Rudiak-Gould and all subsequent developers, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AVSI files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. Copying the AVSI file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AVSI to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
