What is a SIC file

SIC files mostly belong to zenon. SIC files are not a single type format; they come in two main variants that serve configuration purposes.
Compressed Simulation Configuration Files:
  • They use a ZIP internal file format.
  • They hold simulation settings and configuration data from software like those from zenon.
  • You can open these with any standard ZIP extractor and then load the settings in the simulation application.
  • More info is available at COPA-DATA.
  • Sitemap Indexer Configuration Files:
  • They are encoded in UTF-16 (LE).
  • They store sitemap indexing or full-text search configuration data used by SimpleIndexer or SIMPLE-CONFIG tools.
  • They can be viewed or edited with any text editor that supports UTF-16 encoding.
  • FilExt.com tip: Despite sharing an extension, each type is structured for its own task. Choose the right tool based on the file’s internal format.

    How do you open SIC files?

    You need a suitable software like zenon to open a SIC file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your SIC file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a SIC file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
