About KIX Files

A .kix file is a script that contains commands written in the KiXtart scripting language for Windows. These commands can automate routine tasks, such as checking system information, mapping network drives, setting environment variables, or launching programs.

KiXtart was developed as a Windows logon scripting language and has been used by system administrators to automate tasks when users sign in to networked computers. Administrators have also used KIX scripts to configure workstations, manage user environments, and automate software-related tasks across organizations. You may encounter these files when maintaining older Windows systems or supporting networks that rely on existing KiXtart scripts.

You can open and inspect a .kix file with a plain text editor or source code editor. To run the script, you need a compatible KiXtart interpreter, such as kix32.exe, on a supported Windows system.
