The iMindMap application is recommended to open the file. It was released by ThinkBuzan.

How to open IMTX file?

The most common problem when using IMindMap Template is that a specific IMTX is not associated with the program. This causes the file IMTX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IMTX 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 iMindMap

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that iMindMap is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name iMindMap into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file IMTX with iMindMap. Below you will find a list of applications that support IMTX files.

Programs to open IMTX file

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

Step 2. Create association of iMindMap with IMTX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the IMTX file to open in the iMindMap 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the IMTX file with the iMindMap application.

Step 3. Update iMindMap to the latest version

If, despite the association of the iMindMap program with the IMindMap Template 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 ThinkBuzan website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IMTX 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. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the IMTX file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IMTX or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected IMTX 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 IMTX files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 IMTX files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ThinkBuzan, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted IMTX 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. Copying the IMTX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the IMTX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file IMTX to close. 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.
