What is TEXI file?

The file with the extension TEXI is the Document Files file type. It was designed by LaTeX Project Development Team. Document Files consists of 574 similar files. TEX is supported by 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is LaTeX. This was created by LaTeX Project Development Team.

How to open TEXI file?

The main problem with TEX is that the TEXI file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that TEXI 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 TEXI 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 LaTeX

The first step is to check if the computer has the LaTeX program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name LaTeX in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file TEXI with LaTeX. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TEXI files.

Programs to open TEXI file

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

Step 2. Create association of LaTeX with TEXI files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TEXI file still does not use the LaTeX 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TEXI file with the LaTeX application.

Step 3. Update LaTeX to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the LaTeX program, it is possible that TEX requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the LaTeX Project Development Team website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TEXI 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 TEXI file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TEXI or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected TEXI file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of TEXI 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TEXI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting LaTeX Project Development Team, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TEXI 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 TEXI to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the TEXI 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 TEXI to close. However, some background programs may block the TEXI file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
