FXCONFIG File – What is .fxconfig file and how to open it?

FXCONFIG File Format

A FXCONFIG file is a settings file used by FX File Explorer, a file manager application for Android devices. It stores various preferences and configurations for the application, including customizations for the user interface, file browsing behavior, and advanced features. The format of the FXCONFIG file is proprietary and not publicly documented. However, it is known to contain settings for:

• Display options, such as font size, color scheme, and icon theme
• File browsing preferences, such as default directory, file sorting, and preview settings
• Advanced options, such as root access, cloud storage integration, and file compression

FXCONFIG File Location and Use

FXCONFIG files are typically stored in the internal storage of the Android device, in the “FX Explorer/Settings” directory. The application reads the FXCONFIG file during initialization and applies the specified settings to customize the user experience. Users can modify the settings in the FX File Explorer application by accessing the “Settings” menu. Changes made to the settings are automatically saved to the FXCONFIG file.

Opening FXCONFIG Files in FX File Explorer

FXCONFIG files contain settings specific to the FX File Explorer software, enabling users to customize their file browsing experience. To open an FXCONFIG file:

• Locate the file: Navigate to the folder where the FXCONFIG file is stored.
• Right-click and select “Open With”: Choose FX File Explorer from the list of available programs.
• Import Settings: The FX File Explorer will automatically import the settings from the FXCONFIG file, customizing the software’s layout, preferences, and other options.

Once the settings are imported, users can enjoy the customized file browsing experience defined in the FXCONFIG file.

Alternative Methods for Opening FXCONFIG Files

In the absence of FX File Explorer, there are limited alternative methods for opening FXCONFIG files:

• Text Editor: FXCONFIG files are plain text files that can be opened with any text editor, such as Notepad or TextEdit. However, this method only allows for viewing the contents of the file, not importing the settings.
• Contact NextApp Support: As the developer of FX File Explorer, NextApp may provide alternative methods for opening or converting FXCONFIG files. Users can contact their support team for assistance.

FX File Explorer Settings File Format

FXCONFIG files are configuration files used by FX File Explorer, a file management application for Windows. They store various settings and preferences related to the application’s functionality and appearance, allowing users to customize their file browsing experience. These files typically contain information such as the current directory view, sorting options, folder shortcuts, and keyboard shortcuts.

FXCONFIG files are typically located in the application’s configuration directory, which can vary depending on the specific version and installation settings. They are typically not visible by default and are automatically loaded by FX File Explorer upon startup. Users can manually edit these files to modify specific settings, but it is recommended to use the built-in options and preferences dialog within the application for most changes. Incorrectly modifying FXCONFIG files can potentially lead to unexpected behavior or even data loss.
