What is an FXR file?

FXR files mostly belong to WinFax. FXR files are a file extension with several specialized functions.
The main use is as a fax document format used by fax applications like WinFax and WinFax Pro. In this role, the file stores fax transmission data in a proprietary layout.
Other uses include:
  • Audio effect presets: These FXR files hold preset settings for audio effects. They are used in software from SerumFX, Cakewalk FX Chain, and FL Studio. For more information, visit Xfer Records.
  • Video/texture data: A few FXR files serve as video files or texture maps used in visual effects. They work with VFX software from d3 Technologies and Resolume Arena.
  • Report files: Some files are FastReport reports (often compressed with ZIP) and are opened with reporting tools like Crystal Reports. Additional details can be found at Crystal Reports.
  • FilExt.com usage tip: Verify the file’s origin to choose the correct application for viewing or editing. Use the appropriate software to properly open your FXR file.
