The EXX file extension is associated with the IBM Linkway Messaging (MsgPut) application. This program is part of a suite of tools specifically designed for collaborative messaging, using both email and instant messaging, as well as for distributed file synchronization, making the transfer of large files faster and more secure.
A EXX file is an encrypted executable file created by Linkway MsgPut. The file may contain one or more files that have been combined to form one single executable file, or several files stored in separate containers. This type of file must be opened either with the Linkway MsgPut program or its associated program. Other similar file extensions are .EXE, .ENC, and EXI.
Encryption Functionality
Linkway MsgPut employs an advanced encryption system to protect any text, image or audio data contained inside the EXX executable. The encryption algorithm is based on the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption protocol used by many companies and authorities due to its high level of security. It uses both symmetric-key encryption for faster processing, and public-key cryptography for exchanging encrypted messages over the Internet.
Communication Delivery System
The Linkway MsgPut program contains a built-in communication delivery system. This allows users to send protected messages with no need for additional software. It can also work together with other popular communication programs to add an extra layer of security for any message sent. Furthermore, it can facilitate the transfer of confidential documents over covert networks and the transmission of large messages without any need for compression.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .EXX) 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 .EXX 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 .EXX 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 .EXX 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 .EXX extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .EXX file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .EXX 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 .EXX file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .EXX file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .EXX file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
