How to open DDCX file?
The main problem with DivX Descriptor 2 Format is that the DDCX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that DDCX 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 DDCX 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 DivX Descriptor
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that DivX Descriptor is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing DivX Descriptor into the operating system search engine.

Programs to open DDCX file
Remember to download programs supporting DDCX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DivX Descriptor with DDCX files
If, despite the installed application, the DDCX file does not start in the DivX Descriptor application, you must create a file association. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DDCX file with the DivX Descriptor application.
Step 3. Update DivX Descriptor to the latest version
If, despite the association of the DivX Descriptor program with the DivX Descriptor 2 Format 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 DDCX 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to DDCX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DDCX file. Sometimes virus-infected DDCX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the DDCX 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 DDCX files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DDCX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DDCX to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DDCX file again. However, some background programs may block the DDCX file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
