The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LIX 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 Logos Bible Software

Programs to open LIX file
Remember to download programs supporting LIX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Logos Bible Software with LIX files
If, despite the installed application, the LIX file does not start in the Logos Bible Software application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 Logos Bible Software application as the default for handling the LIX file.
Step 3. Update Logos Bible Software to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Logos Bible Software program with the Logos Library System Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LIX 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LIX file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LIX or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LIX 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 LIX files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LIX file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file LIX 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the LIX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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. However, some background programs may block the LIX file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
