# Deprecation: #95089 - ExtendedFileUtility ProcessData hook {#deprecation-95089}

See [forge#95089](https://forge.typo3.org/issues/95089)

## Description {#description}

The TYPO3 hook `$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['t3lib/class.t3lib_extfilefunc.php']['processData']`
which can be used to execute additional tasks, after a file operation has
been performed, has been marked as deprecated.

The accompanied PHP interface for the hook
`\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\File\ExtendedFileUtilityProcessDataHookInterface`
has been marked as deprecated as well.

## Impact {#impact}

If the hook is registered in a TYPO3 installation, a PHP `E_USER_DEPRECATED` error is triggered.
The extension scanner also detects any usage
of the deprecated interface as strong, and the definition of the
hook as weak match.

## Affected Installations {#affected-installations}

TYPO3 installations with custom extensions using this hook.

## Migration {#migration}

Migrate to the newly introduced `AfterFileCommandProcessedEvent` PSR-14 event.
