How to open XEP file?

The most common problem when using EManager Format Packaging Information is that a specific XEP is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open XEP, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XEP 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 X-Genics eManager

In this case, you should first verify that the X-Genics eManager application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name X-Genics eManager into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open XEP files.

Programs to open XEP file

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

Step 2. Create association of X-Genics eManager with XEP files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XEP file to open in the X-Genics eManager application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 X-Genics eManager application as the default for handling the XEP file.

Step 3. Update X-Genics eManager to the latest version

If, however, after binding X-Genics eManager with EManager Format Packaging Information there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XEP 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the XEP 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XEP file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected XEP file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the XEP 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XEP file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XEP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move XEP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file XEP to close. However, some background programs may block the XEP file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
