How to open PGMX file?
The main problem with Pegasys Video Format is that the PGMX file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open PGMX, 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 PGMX 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 TMPGEnc
In this case, you should first verify that the TMPGEnc application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TMPGEnc 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 PGMX with TMPGEnc. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PGMX files.
Programs to open PGMX file
Remember to download programs supporting PGMX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TMPGEnc with PGMX files
If, despite the installed application, the PGMX file does not start in the TMPGEnc 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TMPGEnc application as the default for handling the PGMX file.
Step 3. Update TMPGEnc to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TMPGEnc program with the Pegasys Video 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 Pegasys Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PGMX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PGMX file contents when downloading or copying. 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PGMX file. Sometimes virus-infected PGMX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of PGMX 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PGMX files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PGMX 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the PGMX 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PGMX file again. However, some background programs may block the PGMX file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
