[[Category:Software]]
== Extraction ==
The PS VITA update files can be extracted using the "[http://www.vitadevwiki.com/index.php?title=Tools PS VITA Firmware xTractor]".

To decrypt the files which are unpacked using the tool, the key is available under PS Vita Keys

== Regioning ==
If simular to PS3, then there is no regioning in the .PUP files, they are the same for all different regions.<br />
The PS Vita however gets the psp2-updatelist.xml from different servers, depening on the region of that model.
