How to open IGTX file?
An often recurring problem with IGOR Pro Text Document Format is that IGTX is not associated with the correct program file.

Step 2. Create association of IGOR Pro with IGTX files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IGTX file still does not use the IGOR Pro 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the IGOR Pro application as the default for handling the IGTX file.
Step 3. Update IGOR Pro to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the IGOR Pro program, it is possible that IGOR Pro Text Document Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IGTX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to IGTX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IGTX or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected IGTX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of IGTX 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair IGTX file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file IGTX 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.
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. Copying the IGTX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file IGTX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IGTX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
