How to open file with MLDATX extension?

There can be multiple causes why you have problems with opening MLDATX files on given system. What is important, all common issues related to files with MLDATX extension can be resolved by the users themselves. The process is quick and doesn’t involve an IT expert. We have prepared a listing of which will help you resolve your problems with MLDATX files.

Step 1. Download and install Simulink

The main and most frequent cause precluding users form opening MLDATX files is that no program that can handle MLDATX files is installed on user’s system. The solution to this problem is very simple. Download Simulink and install it on your device. The full list of programs grouped by operating systems can be found above. The safest method of downloading Simulink installed is by going to developer’s website (The MathWorks, Inc.) and downloading the software using provided links.

Step 2. Verify the you have the latest version of Simulink

If the problems with opening MLDATX files still occur even after installing Simulink, it is possible that you have an outdated version of the software. Check the developer’s website whether a newer version of Simulink is available. Software developers may implement support for more modern file formats in updated versions of their products. If you have an older version of Simulink installed, it may not support MLDATX format. The most recent version of Simulink is backward compatible and can handle file formats supported by older versions of the software.

Step 3. Assign Simulink to MLDATX files

After installing Simulink (the most recent version) make sure that it is set as the default application to open MLDATX files. The process of associating file formats with default application may differ in details depending on platform, but the basic procedure is very similar.

Change the default application in Windows

• Right-click the MLDATX file and choose Open with option
• Click Choose another app and then select More apps option
• Finally select Look for another app on this PC, point to the folder where Simulink is installed, check the Always use this app to open MLDATX files box and conform your selection by clicking OK button

Change the default application in Mac OS

• By clicking right mouse button on the selected MLDATX file open the file menu and choose Information
• Open the Open with section by clicking its name
• Select Simulink and click Change for all...
• If you followed the previous steps a message should appear: This change will be applied to all files with MLDATX extension. Next, click the Continue button to finalize the process.

Step 4. Verify that the MLDATX is not faulty

If you followed the instructions form the previous steps yet the issue is still not solved, you should verify the MLDATX file in question. Problems with opening the file may arise due to various reasons.

Try downloading the file again.

3. Verify whether your account has administrative rights

Sometimes in order to access files user need to have administrative privileges. Switch to an account that has required privileges and try opening the Simulink Simulation Data Inspector Saved Session Format file again.

4. Verify that your device fulfills the requirements to be able to open Simulink

If the system is under havy load, it may not be able to handle the program that you use to open files with MLDATX extension. In this case close the other applications.

5. Ensure that you have the latest drivers and system updates and patches installed

Regularly updated system, drivers, and programs keep your computer secure. This may also prevent problems with Simulink Simulation Data Inspector Saved Session Format files. Outdated drivers or software may have caused the inability to use a peripheral device needed to handle MLDATX files.
