Viewing/Running Apple II disks

[RubyTuesday]

I have KF dumped some Apple II disks which I suspect are from 1982. They appear to be Apple DOS 3.3 formatted at 143,360 Bytes, so I've used a dsk extension, instead of img.

I'd like to try and determine the year and version of the disks. My limited understanding is that Apple DOS3.3 didn't store file dates, as such. So. I'm hoping that running the disks in an emulator might give me more clues.

Can anyone give me some guidance on an emulator or DSK viewer that will work under Windows?

MESS's Apple II emulation is pretty good, but you might get trouble in setting that up, without GUI. MESSUI is pretty good for that. And you must get Apple II roms to get emulator to work.

Yeah, I did some Googling and quickly came across the MESS solution. I found a ready-made distro here

Helped me find that I dumped to AppleDOS 3.3+ but should have dumped to DSK, DOS 3.3 Interleaved.

Looks like the disks are 1982 after all.

Hello, Is really Mess's Apple 2 get trouble to setup? Actually am totally new about that.

Did you try using Ciderpress as a viewer for Apple floppy images ? I think it should work with DSK.

As far as I know, Emulator is a hardware devices or program in computer. But am not sure that you talking about this emulator.
