Extract text from Question object files (QUOX)
To convert QUOX Question files to another format, you need Quobject Explorer or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Exam Question File" file type, you need software like Quobject Explorer or a similar tool.
The .QUOX file extension stands for Question Object File Format. It is an educational data file used to build, store, and share multiple-choice quizzes and exam questions.
Typically, users rely on Quobject Designer and Quobject Explorer by Quobject Software to open and manage these files.
A major disadvantage of the .QUOX format is that it is strictly proprietary. You cannot open it natively in web browsers, standard text editors, or modern Learning Management Systems (LMS). If you do not have the specific Windows-based software installed, the quiz content is locked. This creates frustrating roadblocks for teachers and students who need to share study materials across different devices or platforms.
To make the exam content accessible, converting .QUOX files to standard formats like DOCX, PDF, or TXT is highly recommended. Converting to a standard document format ensures anyone can read and print the test, though you will lose the interactive, auto-grading features of the original software.
Because .QUOX is a closed, proprietary data format, standard online converters fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the test data. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your QUOX file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert QUOX file to TMP, TEMP, CACHE, LOG, BAK, OLD, NEW, PART, DOWNLOAD, CRDOWNLOAD, LOCK or PID, you can use Quobject Explorer or similar software from the "Quiz and Exam Data Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert DEVICE, CACHE, SOCK, SYMLINK, PID, MOUNT, FIFO, LOG, PIPE, TMP, JUNCTION or TEMP files to QUOX, try Quobject Explorer or another comparable tool in the "Quiz and Exam Data Storage" category.
The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our QUOX converter.
