What is a DXE file?
DXE file format is used by AutoCAD’s template generator tool. DXE files store extracted information regarding drawn objects and their properties. The file holds also information on the output format of the stored data (for example, spreadsheet data format).
DXE files can be used as template for extracting data with the same properties from multiple files. DXE files can be edited and queried for information. DXE files replaced BLK files used in AutoCAD 2006 version and older.

How to open DXE files
If you cannot open the DXE file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports DXE among those that are installed on your device.
A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the DXE file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.
Possible problems with the DXE format files
The inability to open and operate the DXE file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the AutoCAD Data Extraction Template Format file. Below is a list of possible problems.
- Corruption of a DXE file which is being opened
- Incorrect links to the DXE file in registry entries.
- Accidental deletion of the description of the DXE from the Windows registry
- Incomplete installation of an application that supports the DXE format
- The DXE file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
- The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the DXE file.
- Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a DXE file are out of date.
If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the DXE file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the DXE file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the DXE file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

How to associate the file with an installed software?
If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.DXE) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected DXE file. From the drop-down menu select "Choose default program", then click "Browse" and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the DXE file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.
Is there one way to open unknown files?
Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. DXE) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.
