How to open DQA file?
The most common problem when using Daqarta Extended WAV Data is that a specific DQA is not associated with the program.

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DQA 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 Daqarta

Programs to open DQA file
Remember to download programs supporting DQA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Daqarta with DQA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DQA file still does not use the Daqarta program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DQA file with the Daqarta program.
Step 3. Update Daqarta to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Daqarta program with the Daqarta Extended WAV Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Interstellar Research website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DQA file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to DQA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DQA or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected DQA file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DQA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DQA file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Interstellar Research help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DQA 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move DQA to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DQA to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DQA file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
