The SNAGX file is a TechSmith Snagit capture file that stores screen capture images along with associated metadata and editing information. It uses ZIP compression internally to bundle several elements into one file.
When you open a SNAGX file with TechSmith Snagit, the software reads the compressed archive and reconstructs the image along with any annotations and edit instructions. Although you might extract the archive with standard ZIP tools, doing so may cause you to lose the integrated editing functions.

The internal structure of the *.SNAGX file is proprietary and optimized for use with Snagit.
