How to open YFT file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the YFT 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 Grand Theft Auto V
The first step is to check if the computer has the Grand Theft Auto V program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Grand Theft Auto V in it.

Programs to open YFT file
Remember to download programs supporting YFT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Grand Theft Auto V with YFT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the YFT file still does not use the Grand Theft Auto V program, it means no association. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the YFT file with the Grand Theft Auto V application.
Step 3. Update Grand Theft Auto V to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Grand Theft Auto V program, it is possible that Grand Theft Auto V Fragment Object Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Rockstar Games, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the YFT file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the YFT file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our YFT file. Sometimes virus-infected YFT 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 YFT files changes over time. 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair YFT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted YFT 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the YFT file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the YFT file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
