How to open DPS file?
The main problem with DivX Player Skin is that the DPS file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DPS, 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 DPS 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 DivX
The first step is to check if the computer has the DivX program installed. To do this, enter the name DivX into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DPS with DivX. Below is a list of programs that support the file DPS.
Programs to open DPS file
Remember to download programs supporting DPS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DivX with DPS files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DPS file to open in the DivX 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 DivX application as the default for handling the DPS file.
Step 3. Update DivX to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the DivX program, it is possible that DivX Player Skin requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the DivX, LLC website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DPS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the DPS file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DPS file. However, remember that not every infected DPS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DPS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair DPS file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact DivX, LLC
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DPS 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the DPS file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DPS 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.
