How to open MATX file?

The most common problem when using XWE Data Format is that a specific MATX is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open MATX, 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 MATX 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 XWE

The first step is to check if the computer has the XWE program installed. This can be achieved by typing XWE into the operating system search engine.

Step 2. Create association of XWE with MATX files

If, despite the installed application, the MATX file does not start in the XWE application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 MATX file with the XWE application.

Step 3. Update XWE to the latest version

If, however, after binding XWE with XWE Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the MATX file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MATX file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MATX 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 MATX 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged MATX files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file MATX 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move MATX to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MATX to close. However, some background programs may block the MATX file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
