The admx file extension is associated with the Microsoft administrative XML template file format.

Administrative templates enable administrators to control registry settings using Group Policy. Microsoft Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 introduce a new format for displaying registry-based policy settings.

Registry-based policy settings (located under the Administrative Templates category in the Group Policy Object Editor) are defined using a standards-based, XML file format known as admx files.

These new files replace adm files, which used their own markup language.

This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
