How to open FFLIP file?

The most common problem when using FaceFilter Data Format is that a specific FFLIP is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that FFLIP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FFLIP 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 FaceFilter

Programs to open FFLIP file

Remember to download programs supporting FFLIP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of FaceFilter with FFLIP files

If, despite the installed application, the FFLIP file does not start in the FaceFilter application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the FaceFilter application as the default for handling the FFLIP file.

Step 3. Update FaceFilter to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the FaceFilter program, it is possible that FaceFilter Data Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Reallusion Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FFLIP file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The FFLIP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FFLIP file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FFLIP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FFLIP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FFLIP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FFLIP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FFLIP files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FFLIP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FFLIP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FFLIP to close. 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.
