Can't open the XME file? You are not the only one. Thousands of users face similar problems every day. Below you will find tips on how to open XME files as well as a list of programs that support XME files.

The XME file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the XME files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the XME file on each system platform.
What is XME file?
The file with the extension XME is the Developer Files file type. It was designed by ISIS / Vanderbilt University / School of Engineering. Developer Files consists of 1205 similar files. GME is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The Generic Modeling Environment application is recommended to open the file. It was released by ISIS / Vanderbilt University / School of Engineering.
How to open XME file?
An often recurring problem with GME is that XME is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open XME, 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 XME 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 Generic Modeling Environment
The first step is to check if the computer has the Generic Modeling Environment program installed. To do this, enter the name Generic Modeling Environment into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file XME.
Programs to open XME file
Remember to download programs supporting XME files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Generic Modeling Environment with XME files
If, despite the installed application, the XME file does not start in the Generic Modeling Environment application, you must create a file association. 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Generic Modeling Environment application as the default for handling the XME file.
Step 3. Update Generic Modeling Environment to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Generic Modeling Environment program, it is possible that GME requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ISIS / Vanderbilt University / School of Engineering website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XME 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:
The XME file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to XME files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XME file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected XME files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the XME file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XME file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use ISIS / Vanderbilt University / School of Engineering help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XME 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move XME 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. Just close unnecessary programs. 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.
