How to open GFX file?

The main problem with Genigraphics Graphics Link Presentation is that the GFX file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open GFX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GFX 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 SUPER

The first step is to check if the computer has the SUPER program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SUPER in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file GFX with SUPER. Below you will find a list of applications that support GFX files.

Step 2. Create association of SUPER with GFX files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GFX file still does not use the SUPER 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 GFX file with the SUPER application.

Step 3. Update SUPER to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the SUPER program, it is possible that Genigraphics Graphics Link Presentation requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the eRightSoft page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GFX 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 GFX file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GFX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GFX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GFX file. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged GFX files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GFX 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. Copying the GFX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GFX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the GFX file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
