Questions tagged [resx]

.resx files are resource lists used in .NET applications.

ResX Resource Files are used in .net applications for translating applications into several languages. Each language has its own file, e.g. a file "Default.aspx" could have a resx-file "Default.aspx.de.resx" for german translation and "Default.aspx.fr.resx" for french translation. Default translation is english language and results in file "Default.aspx.resx" without any language code. See Microsoft Documentation for details.
