PXL (Pocket Excel File) is a .pxl proprietary file format used by Microsoft Excel Mobile to store workbooks or documents. It is the mobile version of Microsoft's popular spreadsheet software and is designed for smartphones that run the Windows Mobile operating system. PXL files are used to store worksheets and workbooks that can be accessed and edited on-the-go.
Technical Details
PXL files are based on the Open Packaging Conventions and Compound File Binary Format, allowing the data inside them to be stored in multiple streams. It is also a compressed file format, made up of XML files and other resources such as images, media files etc. PXL files are not supported by the desktop version of Excel, Microsoft Excel Online or any other spreadsheet software other than Excel for Windows Mobile.
Similar File Extensions
Other related formats to PXL include .xlsx, .xlsm, .xltx, .xltm, and .csv.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PXL) 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 .PXL 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 .PXL 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 .PXL 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 .PXL extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PXL file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PXL 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 .PXL file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PXL file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PXL file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
