The spsx file extension is associated with IBM SPSS Statistics, a statistical analysis and predictive analytics program developed by IBM.
An spsx file stores SPSS data in password-protected form.
Open an spsx file with IBM SPSS Statistics on a supported platform. The program prompts for the password required to access the protected data.
Without the correct password, IBM SPSS Statistics cannot provide normal access to the file's contents.
After opening the file with its password in IBM SPSS Statistics, use the program's save or export commands to create an unprotected copy in a format supported by the program, such as a standard SPSS data file.
A password-protected spsx file cannot be meaningfully converted without first unlocking it in IBM SPSS Statistics.
