How to open XFC file?

An often recurring problem with X-Fonter Font Collection is that XFC is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that XFC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XFC 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 X-Fonter

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that X-Fonter is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing X-Fonter into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XFC with X-Fonter. Below you will find a list of applications that support XFC files.

Programs to open XFC file

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

Step 2. Create association of X-Fonter with XFC files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XFC file to open in the X-Fonter application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the XFC file with the X-Fonter program.

Step 3. Update X-Fonter to the latest version

If, however, after binding X-Fonter with X-Fonter Font Collection there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Blacksun Software website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XFC 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 suggests truncating the XFC file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XFC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected XFC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the XFC files changes over time. 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 ability to automatically repair XFC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Blacksun Software
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XFC 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.
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. It is best to move XFC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the XFC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
