How to open TSD file?

The most common problem when using NovaLogic Game Tile Surface Define is that a specific TSD is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that TSD 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 TSD 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 Delta Force

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Delta Force is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Delta Force into the 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 TSD files.

Step 2. Create association of Delta Force with TSD files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TSD file still does not use the Delta Force program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Delta Force application as the default for handling the TSD file.

Step 3. Update Delta Force to the latest version

If, however, after binding Delta Force with NovaLogic Game Tile Surface Define there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the NovaLogic, Inc. page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to TSD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. 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 TSD file. Sometimes virus-infected TSD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TSD file. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TSD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use NovaLogic, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TSD files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the TSD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the TSD 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 TSD to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
