How to open KDX file?
The main problem with Google Earth Import Definition is that the KDX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file KDX 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 KDX 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 Google Earth
The first step is to check if the computer has the Google Earth program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Google Earth 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 KDX files.
Programs to open KDX file
Remember to download programs supporting KDX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Google Earth with KDX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the KDX file to open in the Google Earth application, but you can set it manually. 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 Google Earth application as the default for handling the KDX file.
Step 3. Update Google Earth to the latest version
If, however, after binding Google Earth with Google Earth Import Definition there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Google Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KDX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the KDX file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the KDX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected KDX 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 KDX files changes over time. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular KDX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Google Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file KDX 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. Copying the KDX 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the KDX file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the KDX file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
