How to open AXL file?
The main problem with XML Project is that the AXL file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that AXL files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AXL 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 Adobe ExtendScript
The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe ExtendScript program installed. To do this, enter the name Adobe ExtendScript into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file AXL with Adobe ExtendScript. Below is a list of programs that support the file AXL.
Programs to open AXL file
Remember to download programs supporting AXL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe ExtendScript with AXL files
If, despite the installed application, the AXL file does not start in the Adobe ExtendScript application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the AXL file with the Adobe ExtendScript application.
Step 3. Update Adobe ExtendScript to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Adobe ExtendScript program, it is possible that XML Project requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AXL file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the AXL file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AXL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AXL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the AXL files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AXL files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AXL 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move AXL to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the AXL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AXL to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
