How to open XEJ file?

An often recurring problem with Expression Encoder Job Format is that XEJ is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file XEJ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XEJ 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 Expression Studio

In this case, you should first verify that the Microsoft Expression Studio application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Microsoft Expression Studio into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XEJ with Microsoft Expression Studio. Below you will find a list of applications that support XEJ files.

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Expression Studio with XEJ files

If, despite the installed application, the XEJ file does not start in the Microsoft Expression Studio application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 XEJ file with the Microsoft Expression Studio application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Expression Studio to the latest version

If, however, after binding Microsoft Expression Studio with Expression Encoder Job Format 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 Microsoft Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XEJ file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XEJ file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XEJ file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected XEJ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of XEJ file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged XEJ files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XEJ 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the XEJ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the XEJ 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the XEJ file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
