Troubleshooting Problems Opening DSV Files


Common Problems Opening DSV Files

DeSmuME Disappeared

You attempt to load your DSV file and get an error such as "%%os%% Can't Open The DSV File Extension". Usually, this is because you do not have DeSmuME for %%os%% installed. Your operating system cannot associate your DSV with DeSmuME, so double-clicking the file won't work.


Tip: When another DSV application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.


Wrong Version of DeSmuME is Installed

Your DeSmuME Saved Game File file is incompatible with DeSmuME because you might have the wrong version installed. If you do not have the proper version DeSmuME (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. Most of the time your DeSmuME Saved Game File file was created by a newer DeSmuME than what you have installed.


Tip: Sometimes you can get a clue about the version of DSV file you have by right clicking on the file, then clicking on "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac OSX).


Ultimately, most of the difficulties opening DSV files are due to having the wrong version of DeSmuME installed.


Other DSV File Opening Causes

Assuming you have the right DeSmuME version installed, other problems can prevent you from opening DSV files. If you are still having problems opening DSV files, there may be other issues that are preventing you from opening these files. Additional factors include:

  • Corrupt Windows Registry file path references for DSV
  • Mistaken removal of the Windows registry DSV description
  • DeSmuME or another DSV application experienced a flawed installation
  • The DSV itself is corrupted
  • Your DSV is infected with malware
  • Drivers associated with DSV software need to be updated
  • Windows has inadequate resources to open your DeSmuME Saved Game File file
