How to open DSGM file?
The main problem with DS Game Maker Project is that the DSGM file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DSGM, 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 DSGM 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 DS Game Maker
The first step is to check if the computer has the DS Game Maker program installed. To do this, enter the name DS Game Maker 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 DSGM with DS Game Maker. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open DSGM files.
Programs to open DSGM file
Remember to download programs supporting DSGM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DS Game Maker with DSGM files
If, despite the installed application, the DSGM file does not start in the DS Game Maker application, you must create a file association. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DSGM file with the DS Game Maker program.
Step 3. Update DS Game Maker to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the DS Game Maker program, it is possible that DS Game Maker Project requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Invisionsoft website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DSGM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The DSGM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the DSGM file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DSGM file. Sometimes virus-infected DSGM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DSGM 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DSGM files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Invisionsoft
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file DSGM 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the DSGM file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DSGM to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
