The XMZX file extension is used by SofTest by ExamSoft, a program used to conduct tests and examinations. ExamSoft developed the extension.

The program initially opens the XMZX file, then deletes it and creates an XMWX file, which is auto-saved every minute, and once the exam is over, the final answer file uses the XMDX extension. All three can be viewed in SofTest by ExamSoft for assessment.

How do I open the XMZX file extension?

1. Use SofTest by ExamSoft

  1. Run SofTest by ExamSoft, and then click on the Take An Exam button.take an exam

There are a few other ExamSoft programs to open XMZX files. Remember, these can only be used to view and print the file, not take online assessments. These are:

  • ExamSoft ExamReader

3. Convert the XMZX file

You can also convert the XMZX file into a readable format. There are both online and downloadable converters available.
