How to open EDXZ file?
An often recurring problem with Edraw Compressed XML FIle is that EDXZ is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open EDXZ, 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 EDXZ 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 Edraw Max
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Edraw Max is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Edraw Max in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file EDXZ with Edraw Max.

Programs to open EDXZ file
Remember to download programs supporting EDXZ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Edraw Max with EDXZ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EDXZ file still does not use the Edraw Max program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 EDXZ file with the Edraw Max application.
Step 3. Update Edraw Max to the latest version
If, however, after binding Edraw Max with Edraw Compressed XML FIle there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the EDrawSoft page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EDXZ 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 EDXZ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the EDXZ file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file EDXZ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected EDXZ 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 EDXZ files changes over time. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EDXZ files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting EdrawSoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file EDXZ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move EDXZ to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the EDXZ 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 EDXZ to close. However, some background programs may block the EDXZ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
