How to open X-DIVX file?

An often recurring problem with JRiver Media Center Data Format is that X-DIVX is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that X-DIVX files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the X-DIVX 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 JRiver Media Center

In this case, you should first verify that the JRiver Media Center application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name JRiver Media Center in it. 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 X-DIVX files.

Programs to open X-DIVX file

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

Step 2. Create association of JRiver Media Center with X-DIVX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the X-DIVX file to open in the JRiver Media Center application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the JRiver Media Center application as the default for handling the X-DIVX file.

Step 3. Update JRiver Media Center to the latest version

If, despite the association of the JRiver Media Center program with the JRiver Media Center Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the JRiver, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the X-DIVX file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the X-DIVX file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our X-DIVX file. However, remember that not every infected X-DIVX 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 X-DIVX files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 X-DIVX files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file X-DIVX 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the X-DIVX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the X-DIVX file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
