How to open EIX file?

An often recurring problem with Metin2 Game Data Format is that EIX is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file EIX 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 EIX 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 Metin2

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Metin2 is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Metin2 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 EIX with Metin2. Below you will find a list of applications that support EIX files.

Programs to open EIX file

Remember to download programs supporting EIX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Metin2 with EIX files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EIX file still does not use the Metin2 program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the EIX file with the Metin2 program.

Step 3. Update Metin2 to the latest version

If, however, after binding Metin2 with Metin2 Game Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Ymir Entertainment Co., Ltd. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EIX file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EIX file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our EIX file. However, remember that not every infected EIX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the EIX file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair EIX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Ymir Entertainment
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted EIX files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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 EIX to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the EIX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
