The WXI file extension is related to WiX, a toolset that builds Windows installation packages. WXI files store data used by WiX. WiX was developed by Microsoft Corporation and can create MSI and MSM installation files.
A WXI file contains XML code inside Include tags. It functions like a header file in C++ programming. The main WiX tool works via command line to compile installation packages from XML documents and WXI includes.
WiX toolset is distributed free under the Microsoft Reciprocal License. To open WXI files requires the WiX application itself. If files do not open automatically in WiX, the file association can be set manually in file Properties.
Conversion of WXI file content to other formats is generally not possible. The latest version of WiX should be used to open WXI files correctly. Antivirus software can scan WXI files for potential viruses. In summary, WXI files provide modular XML building blocks that WiX uses to construct Windows installation programs.
