Programs to open YSS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Screen Saver Producer with YSS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the YSS file to open in the Screen Saver Producer application, but you can set it manually. 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 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the YSS file with the Screen Saver Producer program.

Step 3. Update Screen Saver Producer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Screen Saver Producer program, it is possible that YcySoft Screen Saver Producer requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the YcySoft website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to YSS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 YSS file. Sometimes virus-infected YSS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the YSS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged YSS files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact YcySoft
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file YSS 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the YSS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the YSS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the YSS file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the YSS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
