How to open XOF file?

An often recurring problem with Reality Lab 3D Image Format is that XOF is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open XOF, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XOF 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 3DViewer

The first step is to check if the computer has the 3DViewer program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name 3DViewer in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file XOF.

Programs to open XOF file

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

Step 2. Create association of 3DViewer with XOF files

If, despite the installed application, the XOF file does not start in the 3DViewer 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the 3DViewer application as the default for handling the XOF file.

Step 3. Update 3DViewer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the 3DViewer program, it is possible that Reality Lab 3D Image Format requires a newer version of the program.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The XOF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to XOF files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 XOF file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected XOF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of XOF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair XOF file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XOF 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the XOF file to another location.
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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
