The CXD file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the CXD files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the CXD file on each system platform.
What is CXD file?
The CXD file has been categorized as Data Files. The author of this format is Hamamatsu Photonics. Data Files consists of 1326 similar files. SimplePCI Data Document appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. There are also 1 alternative programs to handle the CXD file. You can use SimplePCI in case HCImage cannot be used.
How to open CXD file?
The main problem with SimplePCI Data Document is that the CXD file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file CXD to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CXD 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 HCImage
In this case, you should first verify that the HCImage application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing HCImage into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file CXD with HCImage. Below you will find a list of applications that support CXD files.
Programs to open CXD file
Remember to download programs supporting CXD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of HCImage with CXD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CXD file still does not use the HCImage program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. 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 CXD file with the HCImage application.
Step 3. Update HCImage to the latest version
If, despite the association of the HCImage program with the SimplePCI Data Document file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CXD 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CXD file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CXD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected CXD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of CXD 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CXD file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file CXD 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move CXD to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the CXD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CXD file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CXD file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
