System file
What is a .vcx file?
A .vcx file is a Microsoft Visual FoxPro Class Library. This is a system or support file. Your computer uses it in the background — it isn't a document.
How to open a .vcx file
- Usually nothing. These files are read by the operating system or an application, not by you.
- If it's plain text (settings, logs), a text editor will show its contents safely.
The registry records this extension against Microsoft Visual FoxPro Class Library, so software from that family is the most likely match.
How to convert a .vcx file
- System files shouldn't be converted. If a program is complaining about one, reinstalling that program is the usual fix.
The technical record
For archivists, developers and the merely curious: these are the PRONOM registry entries for .vcx.
