PCSX2 LilyPad Configuration Format appears on 2 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Linux, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use PCSX2 to handle this file.

How to open LILY file?
An often recurring problem with PCSX2 LilyPad Configuration Format is that LILY is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file LILY to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LILY 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 PCSX2
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PCSX2 is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PCSX2 in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open LILY files.
Programs to open LILY file
Remember to download programs supporting LILY files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PCSX2 with LILY files
If, despite the installed application, the LILY file does not start in the PCSX2 application, you must create a file 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the LILY file with the PCSX2 application.
Step 3. Update PCSX2 to the latest version
If, however, after binding PCSX2 with PCSX2 LilyPad Configuration Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PCSX2 Team Ltd website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LILY file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the LILY file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 LILY file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected LILY file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the LILY files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LILY files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting The PCSX2 Team, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LILY files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the LILY file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the LILY file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the LILY file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LILY file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
