Troubleshooting Problems Opening JTX Files
Frequent JTX Opening Issues
Microsoft XPS Viewer Not Present
When you double-click your JTX file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". When this happens, it is commonly due to Microsoft XPS Viewer missing in %%os%%. This will prevent you from double-clicking to open the JTX file because the OS doesn’t know how to handle it.
Tip: If you have another software that you know opens JTX files, you can select it by hitting the "Show Apps" button.
Obsolete Version of Microsoft XPS Viewer
In other instances, your XPS Document File file version may not be supported by your version of Microsoft XPS Viewer. If you do not have the proper version Microsoft XPS Viewer (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. The primary cause of this problem is that your XPS Document File file was created by a different (newer) version of Microsoft XPS Viewer than what's installed.
Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the JTX file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.
Summary: In either case, the majority of problems opening JTX files are related to not having the correct software application installed on your computer.
