I recently have gotten a Windows 11 laptop and downloaded Inkscape 1.1.2 to try it out on. I also have edited my system variables to make it so that I'm able to save my SVGs as XCFs. I do this to keep all my layers while also being able to finally export it as a PSD so I can further edit it in Photoshop.
However, I keep getting repeated errors when I try to save my SVGs as XCFs. In 1.1.2, I get a popup and then it says the file could not be saved. In a past version to test it out (.92), a few attempts have been successful, but now it's just freezes every time I try for some reason.
I'm just wondering if there's a fix to this somehow or if there's another way to end up with my SVG as a PSD with layers kept. I know I can open them in GIMP and then export them as PSDs, but my layers are not kept that way. The ideal solution would be a way in order for me to be able to save SVGs made in 1.1.2 as XCFs with the same version, that's how I used to do it on my old computer.

In the last line it's trying to write to drawing-1.xcf.xcf
Could it be that the file is really called drawing-1.xcf and there's an error in some script that adds the file ending twice?
