Programs to open MAPX file

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

Step 2. Create association of GRYD with MAPX files

If, despite the installed application, the MAPX file does not start in the GRYD 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the MAPX file with the GRYD application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MAPX 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:

The MAPX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to MAPX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file MAPX or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected MAPX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of MAPX file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MAPX file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MAPX 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. Copying the MAPX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the MAPX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MAPX to close. However, some background programs may block the MAPX file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
