The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 Deus Ex application as the default for handling the DXS file.

Step 3. Update Deus Ex to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Deus Ex program with the Deus Ex Saved Game 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 Eidos Interactive Ltd. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DXS 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the DXS 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DXS file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected DXS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DXS 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DXS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Eidos Interactive help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file DXS 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the DXS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects 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 DXS to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DXS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
