The VMCX file is a text-based file that serves as a virtual machine configuration file. It is created through VMware and can be associated with other virtualization programs like Virtual Box. This type of file stores settings related to the guest OS, such as its hardware identifiers, memory usage, network connections, and more.
The VMCX file is used to represent a virtual machine in terms of network and storage settings and the type of installation it contains. It is also used to store and manage information about guest operating system files, libraries, and devices. This file generally exhibits an XML format with XML elements that mark out various parts of the virtual machine's configuration details.

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