GXK File Extension

How to open GXK file?

After double-clicking on the unknown file icon, the system should open it in the default software that supports it. If this does not happen, download and install the Galaxkey File Manager software and then manually associate the file with it.

Step 1. Download and install Galaxkey File Manager

If there is no Galaxkey File Manager or similar software in the system that supports files with the GXK extension, you must first download and install it. Below you will find a list of the most-used applications that work with GXK. After going to the subpage of the program you will find a link to the developer's website, where you can safely download the software installer.

Step 2. Associate Galaxkey File Manager with the GXK file extension

If the user already has one of the applications installed, the next step will be to associate it with the file extension GXK. This can be done in two ways - one is to manually edit the Windows Registry and HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT keys. The second way is simpler and definitely recommended for less advanced users.

• Right click on the unknown GXK file you want to open
• Select "Open with" from the menu
• Click "Choose another application"
• Click "More applications"
• Click "Find more applications on this PC" and indicate the installation location of the appropriate program
• Finally, select the "Always use the selected program to open GXK files" option and confirm the whole operation.

Remember! Manually editing the system registry is only recommended for advanced users, and changes made to it without proper knowledge may result in damage to the system.

Step 3. Check out other possible problems related to GXK files.

Sometimes it happens that despite having the right application and the correct configuration, there are still problems with opening the GXK files. You should then find out what is the reason of the problem.

• Check if the GXK file is not infected - When the file GXK is infected with a virus or malware, it probably will not be able to be opened correctly. In this case, scan the GXK file and take the actions recommended by the antivirus program installed on the system. Most often it is disinfection or deletion of an infected file.
• Check if you, as the operating system user, have appropriate permissions to work with the file GXK
• Check if the icon is an element of the correct file but not only a shortcut to the location where the GXK file no longer exists.
• Check that the system has the necessary resources to run the Galaxkey File Manager application and open the GXK file.
• Check if the file is complete - Sometimes it happens that the GXK file was not copied completely from the external Flash memory, or downloaded from the Internet. When the file is incomplete, it is not possible to open it correctly. In this case, please download or copy the file GXK again.

Step 4. Contact an IT expert

When all of the above methods have failed, it remains to contact an IT specialist or developers of the GALAXKEY FILE MANAGER program.
