The PSS ( .PSS) file extension is a PlayStation 2 Game Video File, which was developed by Sony for their highly popular gaming platform of the same name. These video files are used to store video game graphic content. The principal purpose of this file is to store and display videos and graphics for certain PlayStation games. They are also commonly used in applications such as emulators to create replicas of the original game video.
Technical Details
PSS files contain encoded graphics and audio data, which can be rendered using a Graphics Synthesizer. This data is compressed with MPEG-2, using such compression formats as zip or gzip. Some PSS files also contain subtitles and other text such as codes and instructions that can be used to run the game correctly. The information within these files is often highly technical and can be difficult for even experienced computer technicians to interpret.
Other related file extensions include .PSP, .ISO, .PBP, CWCheat, and .VCD.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PSS) 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 .PSS 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 .PSS 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 .PSS 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 .PSS extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PSS file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PSS 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 .PSS file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PSS file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PSS file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
