An EX_ is a EX_ Compressed Executable File, encoded as part of the New Executable Format by DOS and Windows. It captures the original file in a compressed state, reducing the overall file size for efficient storage or transmission. The EX_ file can compress the executable file while preserving its functionality and data integrity, allowing it to execute without any issues after decoding.
Compression Algorithm
The EX_ file is compressed using a proprietary algorithm called “LZEXE.” It employs an algorithmic approach called lossless data compression, which means that no information is lost during encoding. This files can also be used to encode entire directories and sub-directories of multiple executables into a single compact package. Other similar files are .EXE, .SCR, and .COM, that use the New Executable compressors.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .EX_) 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 .EX_ 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 .EX_ 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 .EX_ 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 .EX_ extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .EX_ file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .EX_ 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 .EX_ file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .EX_ file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .EX_ file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
