How to open IMX file?
The main problem with DaVis Image is that the IMX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file IMX 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 IMX 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 DaVis
The first step is to check if the computer has the DaVis program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name DaVis in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open IMX files.
Programs to open IMX file
Remember to download programs supporting IMX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DaVis with IMX files
If, despite the installed application, the IMX file does not start in the DaVis application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 DaVis application as the default for handling the IMX file.
Step 3. Update DaVis to the latest version
If, however, after binding DaVis with DaVis Image there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the LaVision page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IMX file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The IMX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the IMX file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IMX file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected IMX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IMX file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular IMX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting LaVision, 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 IMX 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the IMX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
