How to open XRY file?

An often recurring problem with XRY Data Format is that XRY is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that XRY files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XRY 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 XRY

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that XRY is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name XRY in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XRY with XRY. Below is a list of programs that support the file XRY.

Programs to open XRY file

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

Step 2. Create association of XRY with XRY files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the XRY file still does not use the XRY program, it means no association. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the XRY file with the XRY program.

Step 3. Update XRY to the latest version

If, despite the association of the XRY program with the XRY Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Micro Systemation AB website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XRY 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 suggests truncating the XRY file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file XRY or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected XRY 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 XRY files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged XRY files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Micro Systemation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XRY 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 XRY 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the XRY file again. However, some background programs may block the XRY file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
