CXT files are used by Director version 11. What are the contents of a CXT file? Files with CXT extension contain multimedia data generated by the aforementioned software developed by Adobe.
DIR is a project file associated with Adobe Director. DIR files can contain animations, video clips, or website elements. Each DIR file stores references to project resources, script code, and animation timeline. Since 2017, Adobe Director has been discontinued.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the CXT file after converting to DIR may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from CXT to DIR to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting CXT to DIR does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in CXT format, properly converted to a DIR file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your CXT file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to DIR on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the CXT file in its original format (without conversion to DIR file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
