1- open file by matlab 2013
2- then click file > export model to > previous version
for example 2008 2009 2011 2012

SLX was not invented in R2011b, so it cnnot read it.
In the latest release, export to R2011b:

I am facing a problem in opening a slx file. I've tried by installing 2015a version but it is crashing all the time. So, please can any one convert the given file to 2013a .mdl format. Please help me out and if anyone is ready, please send the converted file to my id- rahulbundel800@gmail.com

Here it is. Be warned that it might not work properly: I get warnings about missing blocks such as "Complex", and warnings about some of the output states being uninitialized.

Hello all. I installed MATLAB 2010b to run a model which was made for that version. But 2010b can not run .slx file, also matlab 2015b can not display the results of same model. what is the solution.??

It is not possible to have a .slx that was "made for" R2010b.
You can use R2015b to open the .slx and tell it to Save As a previous version; https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/saving-a-model.html#f2-86382

Can R2014a open the slx file?

In general r2014a can open any slx file created by that release or older. However it might not be able to open slx created with newer releases.

I have a similar problem. I have Matlab 2010 installed and I cannot open slx files. There is a model of particular interest for my research: https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/66189-feedback-controlled-cstr-process-for-fault-simulation
Can someone please convert the slx file to mdl?
Thank you.

Sorry, Simulink in modern versions does not permit export to before R2011b. I exported to R2011b and then installed R2011b and opened the model, but a lot of errors were noted, so the export did not work properly.
I do not think it will be practical to export the model down to R2010a.

Can anyone tell me,when onwards .slx model created? Which MATLAB version onwards .slx file be in use

3 Comments

R2012a was the first to support slx files.
https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/release-notes-R2012b.html
How can i extract data like model creation date , model version etc from .slx file ?
There might be functions that can be called for that purpose; I have not investigated that.
If not, then slx are really .zip files that can be unzipped to reach pure text XML files that could be analyzed.
