Open RPX File

RPX files are commonly used in various applications and can serve various purposes, depending on the context they belong in. RPX files are utilized in several industries and applications; however, the most common uses are associated with Report Definitions in .NET applications, and homebrew games and applications for Nintendo Wii U consoles. This article will delve into the various uses for RPX files and provide guidance on how to appropriately open and use them in each context.

Report Definition Files for .NET Applications

RPX files, in the context of .NET applications, refer to report definition files used by ActiveReports, a suite of .NET reporting tools provided by GrapeCity. These files are essentially XML-based reports consisting of layout information, text, images, and other media. The primary purpose of these files is to store reusable report templates for report generation in .NET applications.

To work with RPX report definition files, you need to use the ActiveReports Designer or Viewer component that is integrated into your .NET application. For opening and editing the RPX files, ActiveReports Designer is your go-to tool. You can access the RPX files in the Designer from the Solution Explorer in Visual Studio. Further information on how to install and utilize ActiveReports is available on the GrapeCity website.

Nintendo Wii U Homebrew Games and Applications

RPX files are commonly known as executable game and application files for the Nintendo Wii U gaming console. In this context, an RPX file contains the compiled code and resources for a homebrew game or application. These files can be loaded and executed on a Wii U console using a homebrew launcher application like SDCafiine or Loadiine GX2.

To launch a custom homebrew game or app on your Wii U console, you need to follow these steps:

Acquire the RPX file for the game or application you wish to launch, along with the game's resources and metadata files that should be located in the same directory as the RPX file.
Install a homebrew launcher like Loadiine GX2 on your Wii U console following the instructions provided on the GBATemp forum.
Copy the game or application folder, containing the RPX file and other associated resources, to your Wii U's SD card.
Insert the SD card back into your Wii U console and launch the Loadiine GX2 app.
Navigate to the game or application from the Loadiine GX2 interface and select it to launch your custom homebrew game or application.

Keep in mind that running custom homebrew applications and games could potentially void your Wii U's warranty, and poses a risk of bricking your console if done incorrectly. Proceed at your own risk.
