OXT Troubleshooting


Frequent OXT Opening Issues

Apache OpenOffice Not Present

You encounter an error message such as "%%os%% Can't Open OXT Files" when trying to open your OXT. Customarily, this means that Apache OpenOffice is not installed on %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the OXT file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.


Tip: If you have another software that you know opens OXT files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.


Incorrect Apache OpenOffice Version

Your Apache OpenOffice Extension file is incompatible with Apache OpenOffice because you might have the wrong version installed. Installing the latest version of Apache OpenOffice from Apache Software Foundation is recommended. The primary cause of this problem is that your Apache OpenOffice Extension file was created by a different (newer) version of Apache OpenOffice than what's installed.


Tip: Investigate your OXT file by right-clicking and selecting "Properties" to find clues on what version you need.


Regardless, most of the OXT file opening problems relate to not having the right version of Apache OpenOffice installed.


Other Causes of OXT File Opening Problems

You can still experience errors opening OXT files even with the latest version of Apache OpenOffice installed on your PC. There can be external issues inside of %%os%% that are causing these errors when opening OXTs. Additional factors include:

  • File references in the Windows Registry for OXT are wrong
  • The OXT file description within the Windows Registry was removed
  • Defective install of a OXT program, such as Apache OpenOffice
  • Something has caused file corruption of your OXT
  • Your OXT is infected with malware
  • Device drivers for OXT-related hardware are out-of-date
  • Windows cannot load your Apache OpenOffice Extension file due to insufficient resources (eg. RAM)

Poll: How many different computer files (eg. documents, videos, audio) do you typically view or edit on a daily basis?
