What is a VSX file?
A VSX file is a stencil file created by Microsoft Visio, a diagramming and vector graphics application. It contains a collection of shapes, symbols, and connectors in the XML standard that users can incorporate into Visio diagrams. The VSX format is largely deprecated and replaced by the .VSSX format.
More Information
VSX files are typically found within libraries or collections used by professionals who create complex business diagrams, flowcharts, layouts, and other graphical representations. Users often create or export these files within Visio, enabling easy sharing and modification of stencils across different systems and platforms.
NOTE: Microsoft no longer actively develops the VSX format.
How to open a VSX file
You can open VSX files with Microsoft Visio in Windows. Nevron Software MyDraw, The Omni Group OmniGraffle, and diagrams.net draw.io also support VSX files.
