Programs to open XBSAV file
Remember to download programs supporting XBSAV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Le Fluffie with XBSAV files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XBSAV file to open in the Le Fluffie application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the XBSAV file with the Le Fluffie application.
Step 3. Update Le Fluffie to the latest version

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XBSAV 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. Usually this applies to XBSAV files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XBSAV file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XBSAV files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the XBSAV 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XBSAV file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XBSAV files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. 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 XBSAV 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file XBSAV to close. However, some background programs may block the XBSAV file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
