SKX File Complications

Troubles Opening SKX Files

BizTalk Server Not Present

When trying to open your SKX file, you get the error "Can't Open SKX File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have BizTalk Server for %%os%% installed. Your operating system cannot associate your SKX with BizTalk Server, so double-clicking the file won't work.

Tip: If you know of another program that can open your SKX file, you can try opening it by selecting the application from the programs listed.

Outdated BizTalk Server

Sometimes your installed version of BizTalk Server won't support your XLANG Schedule File file. Visit the Microsoft Corporation website to download (or purchase) the latest version of BizTalk Server. Most of the time your XLANG Schedule File file was created by a newer BizTalk Server than what you have installed.

Tip: You can sometimes get hints about the right program version by right-clicking on the SKX file, selecting "Properties", and looking at the version information.

Summary: Not having the right BizTalk Server version on your computer can cause problems opening SKX files.

Other SKX File Issues

Errors opening XLANG Schedule File files can still occur even with the latest BizTalk Server software installed on your computer. Other SKX opening errors can be created by other system problems inside of %%os%%. These issues include:

• SKX file type Registry entries are wrong
• Mistaken removal of the Windows registry SKX description
• Incomplete or bad installation of a software application associated with the SKX format
• SKX file corruption
• Your SKX is infected with malware
• SKX-related hardware has device drivers that obsolete
• Your computer does not have the adequate system resources to open the XLANG Schedule File format
