Notes about the DSK file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The DSK file type is primarily associated with 'Generic Disk Image'. There are a number of programs that produce images of disks. These images typically start with hex EB and, as an image, most any program that can produce/read a disk image can read the image produced by a different program.

Cannot access DSK files on windows?

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open DSK files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

RECOMMENDED:

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
