Notes about the XAR file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The XAR file type is primarily associated with 'Excel' by Microsoft Corporation. AutoRecover saves all files as the current Excel file format, regardless of the original file format opened. The file is saved as a hidden file with an arbitrary filename with the extension .XAR (for example, ~ar18a.xar).

Cannot access XAR files on windows?

When windows gives you an error message saying that it
"Cannot open XAR files", this means either:

A. You need to identify a program that can open the file
B. Or your registry may be damaged

RECOMMENDED:

In both cases it is strongly recommended that you
run a free scan for registry errors.
