How to open KIPX file?

The main problem with QQ Messenger Theme Format is that the KIPX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file KIPX 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 KIPX 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 QQ Messenger

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 KIPX files.

Programs to open KIPX file

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

Step 2. Create association of QQ Messenger with KIPX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the KIPX file to open in the QQ Messenger 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 QQ Messenger application as the default for handling the KIPX file.

Step 3. Update QQ Messenger to the latest version

If, despite the association of the QQ Messenger program with the QQ Messenger Theme Format 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 Tencent website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KIPX file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the KIPX file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the KIPX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected KIPX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of KIPX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair KIPX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , 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 KIPX 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 KIPX file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the KIPX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file KIPX 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.
