Disk Image

Files with the .dsk extension are most commonly associated with disk image files. These files normally contain a copy of the data that is on a diskette, CD, DVD, or hard drive. The DSK file format preserves the disk info and are useful for archiving disks onto a computer hard drive.

There are a lot of different formats that are not compatible, so make sure you select the right software for your specific DSK file. If you are unsure which type of file you have, use our File Analyzer and it will tell you exactly what type of DSK file it is.
