What is a MOX file?

MOX files mostly belong to Xactimate. MOX files are not a single standard type but a collection of file formats used in different technical areas. They may contain a Xactimate estimate template stored as a compressed archive (often ZIP), a 3D model object used with racing simulation software, simulation models for process or plant analysis, XML‐formatted motion data for the Moxie Viewer, or compressed texture data for 3D applications.

Xactimate Template – A ZIP-based file holding cost estimation data.
3D Model Object – A file that stores a 3D asset used in simulation or gaming environments.
Simulation Model – A file used by simulation platforms like AnyLogic or ExtendSim to run process or plant simulations.
Moxie XML Data – A file that contains motion data in XML format, paired with the Moxie Viewer.
3D Texture Data – A compressed texture file often worked on in Autodesk 3D Studio Max with tools such as MOXBuilder (more info).

FilExt.com tip: To open a MOX file, it is important to know its source. Use a text editor to inspect its structure if necessary, and then open it with the corresponding software tool.

How to open MOX files

You need a suitable software like Xactimate to open a MOX 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 MOX file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a MOX file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

Programs that open and convert MOX files:

Xactimate
See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. MOX files are often referred to as Xactimate data files because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
ExtendSim (Model File) by Imagine That Inc.
ExtendSim is a simulation tool. Using ExtendSim, you can develop dynamic models of real-life processes in a wide variety of fields. Use ExtendSim to create models from building blocks, explore the processes involved, and see how they relate. Then change assumptions to arrive at an optimum solution.

a mox data file is a special file format and should only be edited and saved with the appropriate software.

How to solve problems with MOX files

Associate the MOX file extension with the correct application.
Update your software that should actually open data files. Because only the current version supports the latest MOX file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available Xactimate update.
To make sure that your MOX file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
