If you need to edit the SHX file, one of the safest methods is to download and install the software dedicated to working with SHX files. Using tools such as SHX Online Editors gives less editing possibilities than software adapted to work with the SHX file format.
The installation of the program that supports the SHX file does not guarantee that the file can be edited. Additional information about the SHX file extension can be found here.
This is definitely the surest way. Choose one of the programs that support the SHX file extension, open your file and check the editing options. You will avoid the danger of virus installation if you download the software from the software developer 's website. Links to the websites of software producers can be found on the software subpages. List of sample programs supporting the SHX file below.

After saving the changes, it may not be possible to reopen the SHX file. It is safest to use software that was created to edit files in the SHX format.
It can definitely be said that any of the list of programs that support the SHX extension should be able to edit the SHX file. However, if for some reason you did not find this option, you can try using tools prepared by external websites. Below are tools that allow you to edit SHX online files.
