Convert a file to SKX

About SKX files
The .SKX file format is primarily used as a Property Claim Sketch file by Xactimate, a leading property estimation software suite developed by Xactware (a Verisk company). These files store detailed floor plans, room dimensions, structural diagrams, and associated estimation data used by insurance adjusters and restoration contractors to calculate property damage repair costs. Sharing a .SKX file is a common real-world frustration. It is a highly proprietary, closed-ecosystem format locked behind an expensive software subscription. Clients, homeowners, and third-party contractors cannot natively open these files without a valid license. Users frequently need to convert .SKX files to standard formats like PDF, DXF, or JPG to make the blueprints readable by web browsers or generic CAD software. When converting via native software, you will lose the parametric metadata and estimation database links, keeping only the visual 2D geometry. Because .SKX is a difficult, proprietary format, standard online converters usually fail to process it. However, the internal file structure relies on standard ZIP compression. If you lack the original software, convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. Secondarily, the .SKX extension was historically used by Sony Computer Entertainment for PSP Audio/Music Module files in PlayStation Portable games, and rarely by Microsoft for XLANG Schedule Files in BizTalk Server environments.
Convert.Guru analyzes your SKX file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted SKAX, ZIP, ESX, MOX and CHX files.
