RealMyst 3D Game Archive is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is Dragon UnPACKer.

How to open DNI file?
The most common problem when using RealMyst 3D Game Archive is that a specific DNI is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that DNI 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 DNI 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 Dragon UnPACKer
The first step is to check if the computer has the Dragon UnPACKer program installed. This can be achieved by typing Dragon UnPACKer 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 DNI files.
Programs to open DNI file
Remember to download programs supporting DNI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Dragon UnPACKer with DNI files
If, despite the installed application, the DNI file does not start in the Dragon UnPACKer application, you must create a file 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 select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Dragon UnPACKer application as the default for handling the DNI file.
Step 3. Update Dragon UnPACKer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Dragon UnPACKer program with the RealMyst 3D Game Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Alexandre Devilliers website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DNI file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The DNI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the DNI file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DNI or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DNI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of DNI file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair DNI file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Cyan Worlds, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DNI 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the DNI 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 DNI to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DNI file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
