How to open DMSS file?
The main problem with VideoWave SlideShow Project Format is that the DMSS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file DMSS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DMSS 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 Creator NXT Pro
The first step is to check if the computer has the Creator NXT Pro program installed. This can be achieved by typing Creator NXT Pro into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support DMSS files.
Programs to open DMSS file
Remember to download programs supporting DMSS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Creator NXT Pro with DMSS files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DMSS file to open in the Creator NXT Pro application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Creator NXT Pro application as the default for handling the DMSS file.
Step 3. Update Creator NXT Pro to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Creator NXT Pro program, it is possible that VideoWave SlideShow Project Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DMSS 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 DMSS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the DMSS file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DMSS file. However, remember that not every infected DMSS 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 DMSS files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DMSS file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted DMSS files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the DMSS file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the DMSS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DMSS file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DMSS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
