How to open LGX file?

The most common problem when using Logistix Spreadsheet Format is that a specific LGX is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open LGX, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LGX 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 Microsoft Windows

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Windows is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Windows into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file LGX with Microsoft Windows. Below you will find a list of applications that support LGX files.

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with LGX files

If, despite the installed application, the LGX file does not start in the Microsoft Windows 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. 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the LGX file with the Microsoft Windows application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Windows program, it is possible that Logistix Spreadsheet Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LGX 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 LGX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LGX file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the LGX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LGX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the LGX file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LGX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LGX 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 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 LGX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the LGX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the LGX file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LGX file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
