How to open FTLX file?

The main problem with Apache Freemaker XML Template Format is that the FTLX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that FTLX files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FTLX 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 FreeMarker

In this case, you should first verify that the FreeMarker application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing FreeMarker into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file FTLX.

Programs to open FTLX file

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

Step 2. Create association of FreeMarker with FTLX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FTLX file to open in the FreeMarker 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. 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 FTLX file with the FreeMarker application.

Step 3. Update FreeMarker to the latest version

If, despite the association of the FreeMarker program with the Apache Freemaker XML Template Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Apache Software Foundation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FTLX 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:

The FTLX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FTLX file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FTLX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FTLX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FTLX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FTLX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FTLX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the FTLX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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 the problem persists, restart the machine.
