These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The Quexal application is recommended to open the file.

How to open QXM file?

The most common problem when using Quexal Macro Format is that a specific QXM is not associated with the program. This causes the file QXM to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the QXM 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 Quexal

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Quexal is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Quexal into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open QXM files.

Programs to open QXM file

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

Step 2. Create association of Quexal with QXM files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the QXM file still does not use the Quexal program, it means no 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the QXM file with the Quexal program.

Step 3. Update Quexal to the latest version

If, however, after binding Quexal with Quexal Macro Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Stefano Tommesani website or update the program from the application.

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

The QXM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the QXM file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our QXM file. However, remember that not every infected QXM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of QXM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged QXM 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 file QXM 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the QXM file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the QXM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file QXM to close. However, some background programs may block the QXM file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
