A ZIX file may also be a data file used by older versions of Intuit Quicken, a financial management app. It stores financial data entered by a user, such as their transactions and investments. Quicken no longer stores data in ZIX files.
More Information
Intuit Quicken is an application for Windows and macOS that helps you manage your finances and investments. The software allows you to track transactions, create budgets, and organize assets.
Earlier versions of Quicken used ZIX, ZDB, and CHG files to store financial data that the software referenced when loading information in the app. However, Quicken no longer uses ZIX files, making them rare.
How to open a ZIX file
ZIX files are not meant to be manually opened. Instead, Intuit Quicken references the data stored in the ZIX file. However, Quicken no longer supports ZIX files.
