How to open PS1X file?
The most common problem when using Microsoft PowerShell ASP Data Format is that a specific PS1X is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that PS1X files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PS1X 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 Internet Information Services
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Internet Information Services is installed on the computer.

Programs to open PS1X file
Remember to download programs supporting PS1X files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Internet Information Services with PS1X files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PS1X file to open in the Microsoft Internet Information Services application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PS1X file with the Microsoft Internet Information Services application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Internet Information Services to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Internet Information Services program with the Microsoft PowerShell ASP Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Microsoft Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PS1X 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. Usually this applies to PS1X files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 PS1X file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PS1X files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of PS1X 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 ability to automatically repair PS1X file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PS1X 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 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 PS1X to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 PS1X to close. However, some background programs may block the PS1X file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
