How to open DGZ file?

The main problem with Dega Saved State is that the DGZ file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DGZ, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DGZ 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 Dega

The first step is to check if the computer has the Dega program installed. This can be achieved by typing Dega into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DGZ with Dega. Below is a list of programs that support the file DGZ.

Programs to open DGZ file

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

Step 2. Create association of Dega with DGZ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DGZ file to open in the Dega application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DGZ file with the Dega program.

Step 3. Update Dega to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Dega program, it is possible that Dega Saved State requires a newer version of the program.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The DGZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the DGZ file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DGZ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected DGZ 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 DGZ 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DGZ files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file DGZ 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move DGZ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the DGZ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
