How to open file with .DOCX extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .DOCX file? Do you want to convert a .DOCX file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .DOCX

Full Name Developer Category
Microsoft Word 2007/2010 Open XML Document Format Microsoft Text Files
.DOCX

The .DOCX file extension is one of the various document formats used by Microsoft Word. DOCX files are created with Microsoft Office 2007 and later and are created in the Open XML format. This format has replaced the earlier .DOC files, which are now no longer used to create new documents.

Technical Description

DOCX files are a subset of the ubiquitous XML family of file formats. Designed for document related XML documents, but other types may also use this format. It is open for anyone to use with a software development library that provides easy access to its data format and facilities such as streaming of file contents into a program. The data structure is well defined allowing compatibility with various types of applications that can read and create these documents. For formatting and styling purposes, CSS2is often used alongside HTML-style tags. In addition to basic text formats, this type of file generally supports objects such as charts, images, text boxes, leading, and table formats.

Similar files include .DOTX, .POTXand .PPTX.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .DOCX) 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 .DOCX 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 .DOCX 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 .DOCX 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 .DOCX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .DOCX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .DOCX 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 .DOCX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .DOCX file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .DOCX file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .DOCX file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
