How to open ARTX file?
An often recurring problem with Artisteer Project is that ARTX is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ARTX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ARTX 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 Artisteer
In this case, you should first verify that the Artisteer application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Artisteer into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file ARTX.
Programs to open ARTX file
Remember to download programs supporting ARTX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Artisteer with ARTX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ARTX file to open in the Artisteer 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Artisteer application as the default for handling the ARTX file.
Step 3. Update Artisteer to the latest version
If, however, after binding Artisteer with Artisteer Project there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Extensoft, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ARTX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the ARTX file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ARTX or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ARTX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ARTX files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ARTX files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Extensoft, Inc.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ARTX files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ARTX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ARTX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ARTX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
