How to open SMMX file?

The main problem with SimpleMind Mind Map Format is that the SMMX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that SMMX files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SMMX 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 SimpleMind

In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SMMX files.

Step 2. Create association of SimpleMind with SMMX files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SMMX file still does not use the SimpleMind program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SMMX file with the SimpleMind program.

Step 3. Update SimpleMind to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the SimpleMind program, it is possible that SimpleMind Mind Map Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the SimpleApps page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SMMX 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. Usually this applies to SMMX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SMMX file. However, remember that not every infected SMMX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SMMX 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SMMX files. 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 file SMMX 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the SMMX file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SMMX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SMMX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
