What is XISE file?
The XISE file has been categorized as CAD Files. The author of this format is Xilinx. Additionally, the CAD Files category contains 158 of other files. Xilinx ISE Project Format is most often found on 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The ISE Design Suite application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Xilinx, Inc..
How to open XISE file?
The main problem with Xilinx ISE Project Format is that the XISE file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open XISE, 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 XISE 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 ISE Design Suite
The first step is to check if the computer has the ISE Design Suite program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ISE Design Suite in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XISE with ISE Design Suite. Below is a list of programs that support the file XISE.
Programs to open XISE file
Remember to download programs supporting XISE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ISE Design Suite with XISE files
If, despite the installed application, the XISE file does not start in the ISE Design Suite 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 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 ISE Design Suite application as the default for handling the XISE file.
Step 3. Update ISE Design Suite to the latest version
If, however, after binding ISE Design Suite with Xilinx ISE Project Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Xilinx, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XISE file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. 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 XISE file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file XISE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected XISE 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 XISE 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XISE file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Xilinx, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XISE 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move XISE to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
