Programs to open X50 file
Remember to download programs supporting X50 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of XTreeGold with X50 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the X50 file to open in the XTreeGold application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XTreeGold application as the default for handling the X50 file.
Step 3. Update XTreeGold to the latest version
If, however, after binding XTreeGold with XtreeGold Dos Help there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Jeffrey C Johnson (XTree Company) website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the X50 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the X50 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the X50 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected X50 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the X50 file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular X50 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Jeffrey C Johnson (XTree Company)
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted X50 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the X50 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the X50 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the X50 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
