How to open AEX file?
The most common problem when using Alpha Five Compiled Global Functions Format is that a specific AEX is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that AEX files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AEX file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Alpha Five

If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file AEX.
Programs to open AEX file
Remember to download programs supporting AEX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Alpha Five with AEX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the AEX file to open in the Alpha Five application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Alpha Five application as the default for handling the AEX file.
Step 3. Update Alpha Five to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Alpha Five program, it is possible that Alpha Five Compiled Global Functions Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Alpha Software, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AEX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the AEX file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AEX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected AEX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of AEX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AEX files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Alpha Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AEX except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the AEX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AEX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AEX file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
