What is a TXL file?

TXL files mostly belong to Trimble Business Center.

This TXL file is not a single type but a label for several specialized data formats. In many cases, it is the Trimble Tunnel XML file used with Trimble Business Center to exchange tunnel and geospatial planning data via an XML structure. For this type, the file acts as a container for design measurements and project data.

Another use of a TXL file is as a log file within the 10x Genomics pipeline. Here the file holds internal, often encrypted, log information from the Cell Ranger software used to process single cell gene expression data. More details are available at the 10x Genomics support page.

A smaller share of TXL files serves as a 3D animation data file (sometimes noted as a Tales of Xyllion data file), where they carry animation and modeling data.

  • Trimble Tunnel XML: Uses XML formatting for tunnel and geospatial design data.
  • 10x Genomics Log File: Contains encrypted logs for bioinformatics analysis within the Cell Ranger framework.
  • 3D Animation Data: Houses data for digital animation projects.

FilExt.com note: If you need to open a TXL file, examine its header with a text editor to spot clues about its origin. Then, use the corresponding specialized software such as Trimble Business Center, the Cell Ranger pipeline, or a 3D animation tool to properly view and work with the data.

How do you open TXL files?

You need a suitable software like Trimble Business Center to open a TXL file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your TXL file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a TXL file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
