Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Mac OS, Windows. The TI Connect application is recommended to open the file.

How to open 8XU file?
An often recurring problem with TI-83 Plus Operating System Format is that 8XU is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file 8XU to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 8XU file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install TI Connect
In this case, you should first verify that the TI Connect application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TI Connect into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 8XU files.
Programs to open 8XU file
Remember to download programs supporting 8XU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TI Connect with 8XU files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 8XU file still does not use the TI Connect program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the 8XU file with the TI Connect program.
Step 3. Update TI Connect to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TI Connect program with the TI-83 Plus Operating System Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Texas Instruments Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 8XU file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 8XU file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 8XU file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 8XU file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the 8XU file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 8XU file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Texas Instruments help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file 8XU except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the 8XU file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 8XU file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
