AXX ( AXX) is a file extension used for files encrypted with AxCrypt. This encryption tool offers AES 256-bit encryption to allow users to create and share secure documents, with military grade encryption techniques. It offers support for Windows, Android, Mac OS and iOS. The encrypted files can be securely transferred over the internet using email, Dropbox, Google Drive or other methods. AxCrypt also offers a secure private key that is required to open the encrypted file which makes it even more secure.
How It Works
AxCrypt uses a cryptographic algorithm to scramble the content of the AXX file in order to protect its contents using a single long password. The security relies on strong encryption algorithms like AES-256 which makes it virtually impossible for anyone to access the data without knowing the password. AxCrypt also encrypts file and folder names as well as file timestamps for added protection. Files encrypted with AxCrypt can be shared between computers without needing additional software for encryption, as AxCrypt will handle the encryption process. Files encrypted with AxCrypt can be securely opened on any platform that is supported by the application.

Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .AXX) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .AXX extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .AXX file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .AXX extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .AXX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .AXX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .AXX file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .AXX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .AXX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .AXX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
