How to open KXS file?
The main problem with KX Skin Format is that the KXS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file KXS 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 KXS 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 kX Project
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that kX Project is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name kX Project into the system search engine.

Programs to open KXS file
Remember to download programs supporting KXS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of kX Project with KXS files
If, despite the installed application, the KXS file does not start in the kX Project application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the KXS file with the kX Project application.
Step 3. Update kX Project to the latest version
If, despite the association of the kX Project program with the KX Skin Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Eugene Gavrilov website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KXS file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the KXS file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file KXS or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover KXS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the KXS files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged KXS files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KXS files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the KXS file to another location.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file KXS to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
