What is XRFF file?
The file in the XRFF format belongs to the Data Files category. The creator of this file is University of Waikato. Data Files consists of 1326 similar files. Extensible Attribute-Relation Format is most often found on 3 operating systems. These systems consist of Linux, Mac OS, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is Weka. This was created by University of Waikato. Alternatively, you can use 2 other programs.
How to open XRFF file?
The main problem with Extensible Attribute-Relation Format is that the XRFF file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file XRFF to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XRFF 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 Weka
In this case, you should first verify that the Weka application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Weka into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file XRFF.
Programs to open XRFF file
Remember to download programs supporting XRFF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Weka with XRFF files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XRFF file to open in the Weka application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 XRFF file with the Weka program.
Step 3. Update Weka to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Weka program with the Extensible Attribute-Relation Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the University of Waikato page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XRFF file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The XRFF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the XRFF file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XRFF file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XRFF files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the XRFF file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair XRFF file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact University of Waikato
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted XRFF 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 XRFF file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the XRFF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the XRFF file again. 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.
