Hi! I have one .jfs file on my computer that I want to use. The problem is that I have Windows XP. Is there any way I can use the file, some program or something?

Where did you download the file from? Maybe that site will tell you what application you need to use to open it. .jsf is not a standard file type, not that the extention really means that much, it could be based on the system that produced the content (like here you have a HTML page (.html), but the URL is for a .ASPX - this tells us it is a .NET application. .jsf *could* be Java Server Face, and the content could be HTML).

JFS is a File System, but I am not aware of a file type in Linux that uses this extention (that does not mean it does not exist). A file system defines how files are stored on a hard disk, a file type is how data is stored in a single file.

Sometimes you can get file that contain file systems (a .ISO file is a common example of this, it is a dump of a CD image), if that is the case then while it is unlikely you will be able to "mount" it in Windows, you will be able in Linux, the answer might be to grab a Live CD for Linux, then mount the file in Linux. But it is likely the files will have limited use outside Linux if this is the case.

I don't remember the site but I think that the .jfs extension is the file type that Linux uses...

I hope this helps you. I have searched and found that .jfs is for Linux or Unix Server system is is a Journal filing system. more than likely the file/program will not work on a Windows XP System.

Thanks but I already know that. I was just asking if some one knew some converter that would convert the file so that you can open it with XP or something... But thanks for your answer

I guess you can open this by finding open source application so you can access the file, try reading this link: http://jfs.sourceforge.net/ it might help you access an application.

Thanks but I've already found that site. Didn't seem to help... Or maybe I'm just too dumb to find any solutions there
