What is a PVX file?

PVX files mostly belong to ProView. PVX files have two main uses based on their makeup.

ZIP-based parameter files: Some PVX files are a ZIP-compressed archive that holds XML data used for configuration. Applications like ProView use these files to store parameter settings in a compact form.

3D program files: Other PVX files work with the 3D-XplorMath program. They may represent compiled code similar to FoxPro source code and are connected to legacy systems from firms such as Paradox. For more details, see this page.

FilExt.com note: Use the proper tool for each type. A ZIP-based PVX can often be opened with standard archive software, while a 3D program file needs its native application.

How to open PVX files

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