How to open HXPROJ file?

The most common problem when using FlashDevelop Flash Project is that a specific HXPROJ is not associated with the program. This causes the file HXPROJ 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 HXPROJ 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 FlashDevelop

In this case, you should first verify that the FlashDevelop application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name FlashDevelop into the 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 HXPROJ files.

Programs to open HXPROJ file

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

Step 2. Create association of FlashDevelop with HXPROJ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the HXPROJ file still does not use the FlashDevelop 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. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the FlashDevelop application as the default for handling the HXPROJ file.

Step 3. Update FlashDevelop to the latest version

If, despite the association of the FlashDevelop program with the FlashDevelop Flash Project 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 FlashDevelop.org website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HXPROJ 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 HXPROJ file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the HXPROJ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HXPROJ or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected HXPROJ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HXPROJ files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 HXPROJ file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting FlashDevelop.org, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file HXPROJ 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the HXPROJ 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HXPROJ to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the HXPROJ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
