.mex File Extension

Developer: Insight Software Solutions
File type: Macro Express File
You're here because you have a file that has a file extension ending in .mex. Files with the file extension .mex can only be launched by certain applications. It's possible that .mex files are data files rather than documents or media, which means they're not meant to be viewed at all.

what is a .mex file?

The macros that are created using the Macro Express application are called MEX files and are used as Macro Express Files, categorized as data files, developed by Insight Software Solutions. MEX files refer to the scripts and commands necessary for the automation of the common tasks to be performed on Windows operating systems and other programs. Macro Express uses MEX files to perform macro utility tasks wherein macro refers to the tasks regularly performed and executed using actions and commands, allowing users to perform more productive and less stressful tasks. Keystrokes or mouse strokes are stored in MEX files and this allows MEX files to act as shortcuts to perform a certain task. MEX files are also used by Macro Express to save these macro commands. Macro Express can be used to open MEX files. This application is run on Windows OS for the recording, editing, and playing back macros.

how to open a .mex file?

Launch a .mex file, or any other file on your PC, by double-clicking it. If your file associations are set up correctly, the application that's meant to open your .mex file will open it. It's possible you may need to download or purchase the correct application. It's also possible that you have the correct application on your PC, but .mex files aren't yet associated with it. In this case, when you try to open a .mex file, you can tell Windows which application is the correct one for that file. From then on, opening a  .mex file will open the correct application.

Insight Software Solutions Macro Express

Insight Software Solutions Macro Express

Insight Software Solutions mainly creates and develops macro automation software for Windows. Their flagship product Macro Express is packed with hundreds of macros that automate any function in the operating system. Programming skills are only needed when customizing VB scripts, but ordinary users mostly use Quick Wizards that compose macros for them based on their answers to questions the utility asked. Other people use the Capture tool to record their keystrokes and mouse movements, turn these actions into code, and compile everything into an embedded macro that simulates how humans use the computer. User-generated macros are stored in a MEX file that only Macro Express can read. Macros are activated when the user presses a Hot Key combination, inputs the correct shortkey, clicks on a corner of the screen, and runs them from Macro Explorer or through the DOS command line.

a word of warning

Be careful not to rename the extension on .mex files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.

what is a file extension?

A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .mex. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.
