| CmapTools Exported Topic Map Format | IHMC | Data Files |
The XTM file extension is a Topic Map file used by CmapTools, a collaborative concept mapping program with which users can analyze complex relationships between concepts. A Topic Map is essentially a graphical representation of information and ideas connected to a specific subject matter that can then be visualized in the form of “maps”. The XTM file format is an open, well-defined XML format designed specifically for such data sets.
The XTM files enable people to create links between topics, represent relationships between them, and organize information into hierarchical structures. In their Topic Maps, users can include several elements like topics, associations, occurrences, properties, and namespaces, and each one of them can be labeled using various attributes. To view XTM files in a text editor, its recommended the use of any text editor that supports XML files.

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