How do I view .xcf files or convert them to something usable?
#2
Gimp Saves in the Gimp native format something.xcf or a compressed version something.xcfgz...

For any other format png / jpg / tiff use Export. Note the default is png. Make sure you use the correct suffix extension for the format required and Gimp will bring up the relevant export dialogue.

see: https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-images-out.html

note: Gimp .xcf keeps all layers (including text as text) + masks, channels guides and grid settings in the file. Only export as a very final operation.
