Tips to open FSH file
Can't open the FSH file? You are not the only one. Thousands of users face similar problems every day. Below you will find tips on how to open FSH files as well as a list of programs that support FSH files.

The FSH file is supported on 3 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the FSH files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the FSH file on each system platform.
What is FSH file?
The file with the extension FSH is the 3D Image Files file type. The author of this format is OpenGL. 3D Image Files consists of 622 similar files. Fragment Shader Format is supported by 3 operating systems. The file will work on Linux, Mac OS, Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. Alternatively, you can use 2 other programs.
How to open FSH file?
An often recurring problem with Fragment Shader Format is that FSH is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open FSH, 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 FSH 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 OpenGL SDK
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that OpenGL SDK is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing OpenGL SDK into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FSH files.
Programs to open FSH file
Remember to download programs supporting FSH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OpenGL SDK with FSH files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FSH file still does not use the OpenGL SDK program, it means no association. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FSH file with the OpenGL SDK program.
Step 3. Update OpenGL SDK to the latest version
If, despite the association of the OpenGL SDK program with the Fragment Shader Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FSH file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FSH file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 FSH file. However, remember that not every infected FSH file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FSH files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FSH file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FSH 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. If possible, you can try to move the FSH file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the FSH file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FSH to close. However, some background programs may block the FSH file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
