What is a .LZX file?

An .LZX file is a type of compressed archive that was originally used on Commodore Amiga computers during the 1990s. This file format was created using a program called the LZX archive utility. The .LZX file can contain one or more files that have been compressed to save space. This is useful for storing multiple files together or for reducing the amount of space they take up on a disk.

The compression techniques used in the LZX format were later adopted by Microsoft and are now used in other file formats like .CAB (Cabinet files) and .CHM (Compiled HTML Help files).

To open an .LZX file, you will need specific software that can handle this format. Some of the programs that can open .LZX files include: 1. **Double Commander with UnLZX plug-in** - Double Commander is a file manager that can be enhanced with plugins such as UnLZX to handle specific file types like .LZX. 2. **Ghisler Total Commander with UnLZX plug-in** - Total Commander is another file management tool that, when equipped with the UnLZX plug-in, can open and extract files from .LZX archives. 3. **The Unarchiver** - This is a versatile archiving application available primarily for macOS, but also with versions for other platforms, which can decompress a wide variety of archive formats including .LZX.

To work with an .LZX file, you would typically download and install one of these programs, then use it to open and extract the contents of the .LZX archive. This process allows you to access the compressed files stored within the archive.
