To open a BLEND file, launch Blender. Ensure the BLEND file is complete and error-free. If obtained from a third party, request another copy, as errors may occur during copying. Download the file again if downloading errors occurred.
The BLEND file format is Blender’s native format. It contains all data comprising a Blender project – objects, textures, animations. BLEND is a hybrid semi-self-descriptive format. It has a header and blocks in a TLV pattern. The DNA1 structure provides a schema of all structures.
Associate Blender with the BLEND extension to open BLEND files directly. Manually edit the Windows Registry or select “Always use Blender for BLEND files” when prompted.
Update applications used to open BLEND files. Only the latest versions support the format. Scan BLEND files to check for viruses before opening.
Blender can convert BLEND files to other 3D formats. When saving, you can save as a single file or multiple, separating aspects of the project.
