How to open VXF file?
The main problem with Microsoft Money is that the VXF file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open VXF, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the VXF 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 Microsoft Money
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Money is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Money into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file VXF.
Programs to open VXF file
Remember to download programs supporting VXF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Money with VXF files
If, despite the installed application, the VXF file does not start in the Microsoft Money 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the VXF file with the Microsoft Money program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Money to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Money program, it is possible that Microsoft Money requires a newer version of the program.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 Microsoft Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the VXF file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The VXF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the VXF file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the VXF file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected VXF file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of VXF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair VXF file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file VXF 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 VXF file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the VXF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the VXF file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
