How to open GDSP file?
An often recurring problem with Astound is that GDSP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file GDSP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GDSP 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 Astound
In this case, you should first verify that the Astound application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Astound into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support GDSP files.
Programs to open GDSP file
Remember to download programs supporting GDSP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Astound with GDSP files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GDSP file to open in the Astound application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Astound application as the default for handling the GDSP file.
Step 3. Update Astound to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Astound program, it is possible that Astound requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Gold Disk Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GDSP file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The GDSP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GDSP file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GDSP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected GDSP 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 GDSP files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GDSP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Gold Disk Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GDSP 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the GDSP file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the GDSP file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GDSP file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
