What is STXT file?
The file with the extension STXT is the Encoded Files file type. The creator of this file is Oracle Corporation. In addition to this file, the Encoded Files category includes 236 related files. Sealed Text Document is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use Unsealer to handle this file. This is a program created by Oracle Corporation.
How to open STXT file?
The most common problem when using Sealed Text Document is that a specific STXT is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that STXT 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 STXT 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 Unsealer
The first step is to check if the computer has the Unsealer program installed. This can be achieved by typing Unsealer 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 STXT files.
Programs to open STXT file
Remember to download programs supporting STXT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Unsealer with STXT files
If, despite the installed application, the STXT file does not start in the Unsealer application, you must create a file 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 STXT file with the Unsealer application.
Step 3. Update Unsealer to the latest version
If, however, after binding Unsealer with Sealed Text Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Oracle Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the STXT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the STXT file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the STXT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected STXT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of STXT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular STXT file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Oracle Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted STXT 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. It is best to move STXT 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 STXT to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the STXT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
