Open XSC File

The XSC extension file is a file created by the Visual Studio software development IDE.

Visual Studio is Microsoft's integrated development environment, used to develop computer programs, as well as websites, web applications, web services, and mobile applications.

The XSC file is auto-generated by Visual Studio when the user creates an XML schema under the XSD format that contains data in addition to the schema.

When the XSC file is created by MVS, an XSS file is also created.

XSC files can be avoided as they are not necessary and if you want to prevent Visual Studio from creating XSC and XSS files, you must open the XSD file with a text editor and modify a code, where "false" was previously "true ", as follows:

msdata: IsDataSet = "false"
