What is a XCF file?
XCF is the native file format of GIMP, a free image editor. It preserves layers, transparency, masks, paths, and other editing data, similar to Photoshop's PSD format.
XCF is useful for storing complex image projects before exporting to standard formats.
How to open XCF files
XCF files can be opened and edited using GIMP. There are few third-party tools that support this format directly, so conversion is often necessary for broader use.
