How to open DSI file?
The most common problem when using DAZ Studio Layered Image Set is that a specific DSI is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that DSI files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DSI 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 DAZ Studio
In this case, you should first verify that the DAZ Studio application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name DAZ Studio in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DSI with DAZ Studio .

Programs to open DSI file
Remember to download programs supporting DSI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DAZ Studio with DSI files
If, despite the installed application, the DSI file does not start in the DAZ Studio 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 DAZ Studio application as the default for handling the DSI file.
Step 3. Update DAZ Studio to the latest version
If, despite the association of the DAZ Studio program with the DAZ Studio Layered Image Set file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the DAZ 3D Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DSI file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the DSI file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DSI file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected DSI file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DSI 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DSI files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact DAZ Productions
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DSI 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the DSI 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DSI to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DSI file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
