How to open GSITE file?

The main problem with Google Drive Data Format is that the GSITE file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file GSITE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GSITE 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 Google Drive

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Google Drive is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Google Drive 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 is a list of programs that support the file GSITE.

Programs to open GSITE file

Remember to download programs supporting GSITE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Google Drive with GSITE files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GSITE file still does not use the Google Drive program, it means no 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the GSITE file with the Google Drive application.

Step 3. Update Google Drive to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Google Drive program, it is possible that Google Drive Data Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Google Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GSITE file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the GSITE file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GSITE file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GSITE files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GSITE 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged GSITE files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GSITE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move GSITE to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GSITE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
