The ISU file extension is associated with InstallShield, a software created by Macrovision Corporation that is used to package, install and manage software programs. An InstallShield Uninstall Script file contains instructions that allow uninstallation of a specific program when it is launched by the user. The script contained in the.isu file is created in a proprietary language based on Pascal scripting. These instructions are typically stored in a directory called Uninstall which can be found within the software's main directory or sometimes within the root directory of drive C:.
Technical Details
ISU files are related to other installation scripts such as unattended installation files (.iss) or automated installation files (.aip). This script contains installation information such as the programs version number, options chosen during install, or user settings. It also contains instructions for uninstalling the various components of the program and cleaning up any residual system files once the uninstall process has been completed. The installshield compiler is responsible for creating these instructions. The compiler is developed and distributed by Macrovision Corporation as an integrated part of their software build system called InstallShield Developer.

Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .ISU) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .ISU extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .ISU file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .ISU extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .ISU extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .ISU file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .ISU file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .ISU file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .ISU file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .ISU file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
