The file in the WXMX format belongs to the Document Files category. The author of this format is Andrej Vodopivec. In addition to this file, the Document Files category includes 574 related files.

This was created by Andrej Vodopivec.
How to open WXMX file?
The main problem with WxMaxima Document is that the WXMX file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that WXMX 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 WXMX 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 wxMaxima
In this case, you should first verify that the wxMaxima application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing wxMaxima into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file WXMX with wxMaxima. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open WXMX files.
Programs to open WXMX file
Remember to download programs supporting WXMX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of wxMaxima with WXMX files
If, despite the installed application, the WXMX file does not start in the wxMaxima application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 WXMX file with the wxMaxima application.
Step 3. Update wxMaxima to the latest version
If, however, after binding wxMaxima with WxMaxima Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Andrej Vodopivec page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WXMX file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the WXMX 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WXMX file. However, remember that not every infected WXMX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WXMX files changes over time. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WXMX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Andrej Vodopivec, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WXMX 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the WXMX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the WXMX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WXMX file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
