Programs to open S5X file
Remember to download programs supporting S5X files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Heritage of Kings: The Settlers with S5X files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the S5X file to open in the Heritage of Kings: The Settlers 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed.

Step 3. Update Heritage of Kings: The Settlers to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Heritage of Kings: The Settlers program, it is possible that Heritage Of Kings: The Settlers Map Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S5X file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The S5X file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the S5X file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 S5X file. Sometimes virus-infected S5X files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the S5X file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair S5X file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file S5X 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the S5X 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the S5X file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the S5X file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
