How to open CLIX file?
The main problem with CLIX Command Format is that the CLIX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file CLIX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CLIX 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 CLIX
In this case, you should first verify that the CLIX application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name CLIX into the 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 CLIX.
Programs to open CLIX file
Remember to download programs supporting CLIX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CLIX with CLIX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CLIX file to open in the CLIX application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the CLIX file with the CLIX program.
Step 3. Update CLIX to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the CLIX program, it is possible that CLIX Command Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Rixstep website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CLIX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The CLIX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to CLIX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 CLIX or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CLIX 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 CLIX 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CLIX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Rixstep help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file CLIX 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. If possible, you can try to move the CLIX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the CLIX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
