Dec 13, 2019 Open a DMG file in Windows Though there isn’t much you can do with a.dmg file within Windows, there are ways to open the platform within your computer. Despite the differences between the core of Mac OS and Windows 10,.dmg files can be read with the assistance of third-party apps.

DMG file is a compressed file of CD and DVD information; it makes files size smaller without corrupting the file. DMG files allow distributing software over the Internet. File extension errors generally occur when the appropriate program is not installed in your system. Scan your system to identify and fix DMG file extension errors.

Here's a short guide on opening DMG files on Windows and extracting data from them.

Download DMG Extractor (it's free).
Once installed, DMG Extractor will run automatically.
Open DMG Extractor and select the DMG file you want to extract
Click the 'Open' menu icon on the top-left of the window.
If the DMG archive is password protected, DMG Extractor will prompt you for its password:
DMG Extractor will load the file you selected. If you have a large DMG file, a progress bar will show until the DMG file is loaded.
Now you should be able to see all the files contained within the DMG file and navigate folders and files.
Extract the files you want
Click 'Extract', next to the 'Open' button. You can choose whether to extract the whole of the DMG's contents into the same folder, or into a specific one chosen by you. If you don't need to extract all the files, just select the files you want and on the 'Extract' menu click 'Selected files to…'

That's it: extraction complete! Your selected files should now have been converted from the DMG file and saved onto your Windows computer ready for you to use.

When a 'corrupt' disk image file really isn't corrupt

I'll definitely keep this information in mind...
btw, it's 'hdiutil', not 'hdutil' (obviously just a typo, otherwise there wouldn't have been any output from the 'attach' or 'imageinfo' subcommands).

When a 'corrupt' disk image file really isn't corrupt

Not the same problem but this may help a few users out there. Once in a blue moon I will download a file which should be an installer, it could be any kind of file however, and when I click on it it usually opens in script editor.
Often this files are named like 'Worlds Greatest program 1' Changing them to 'Worlds Greatest program 1.0' will usually make the program work. Sometimes just adding any dot and number will work. You will be asked if you want to add the extension, just say yes. I don't know why this happens but the fix is easy.

When a 'corrupt' disk image file really isn't corrupt

I just checked on a computer running Panther, and it has 'bunzip2' installed as a part of the BSD.pkg - I think the BSD subsystem was included in the standard install and would normally have been installed unless explicitly excluded. So if attempting to open a disk image in 10.3 gives a corrupt image error, use and if the output indicates 'bzip2 compressed data', then try something like to see if it can be converted to something that can be opened normally. I get some 'trailing garbage' error during the process, but the output file seems to work ok.

Some preliminary observations:
Disk images created directly using hdiutil create -format UDBZ don't bunzip properly.
Those converted to UDBZ (originally created using 'Disk Utility' or hdiutil without specifying a format) seem to work after bunzip2, but only using Panther's bunzip2 - Tiger's bunzip2 doesn't unzip them properly.
Anyone have any ideas to account for the differences in the UDBZ images created by the two methods, and the different behaviours of bunzip2 under 10.3 and 10.4?

Developers: When you do make a UDBZ image, put 'Requires OS X 10.4 or later' immediately under your download link/button. Leave no doubt as to the minimum requirement of your app.
