What is a .PIXADEX file?
The file extension .PIXADEX refers to a Pixadex Icon file. This type of file is an icon image file primarily used by the application CandyBar, although it can also be compatible with other icon applications that support Pixadex format. A .PIXADEX file contains a collection of icon images, each at different resolutions such as 512x512, 256x256, 128x128 pixels, and so on. These varying resolutions allow the icons to be displayed clearly at different sizes, which is particularly useful for customizing the appearance of icons on the Mac OS X operating system.
To open a .PIXADEX file, you would typically use the program Panic CandyBar. However, it's important to note that Panic CandyBar has been discontinued, which means it is no longer being updated or supported by its developers. Users who have an existing installation of CandyBar can still use it to open and manage .PIXADEX files. If you do not have CandyBar, you might need to look for alternative software that supports the Pixadex format or consider converting the .PIXADEX files to another icon format that is supported by your current software.
