How to open HRX file?

An often recurring problem with Herolab EasyWin32 is that HRX is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that HRX files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HRX 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 Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32

In this case, you should first verify that the Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support HRX files.

Programs to open HRX file

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

Step 2. Create association of Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 with HRX files

If, despite the installed application, the HRX file does not start in the Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 application as the default for handling the HRX file.

Step 3. Update Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Herolab E.A.S.Y Win 32 program with the Herolab EasyWin32 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 HRX 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. This suggests truncating the HRX 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HRX or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected HRX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the HRX 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.
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 HRX file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HRX 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.
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 HRX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the HRX file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
