The ALL file type is primarily associated with Finale.

ALL	File extension: ALL
	File type:	data file

What is an ALL file?

ALL files mostly belong to Finale. ALL files are not a single standard file type but rather an extension applied by various systems for different kinds of data.
They may contain:

Audio data used in music notation systems (for example, files required by Finale software).

Demographic or database records such as International Data Base population data (https://www.census.gov).

Textual datasets like the Cranfield collection from SMART research (https://www.cs.cornell.edu).

3D model information that can be integrated with developer tools like PL/SQL Developer.

CNC machine instructions (using Fanuc G-Code) for automated machining.

Analyzer files used in specialized programs such as the Alloy Analyzer (http://alloytools.org/).

Specialized test data for systems like the Advantest Q8492 COTDR.

FilExt.com tip: Each ALL file must be handled with software suited to its internal structure. Using file inspection tools to view the header or metadata can help determine its proper application.

How to open ALL files

You need a suitable software like Finale to open an ALL 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 ALL file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a ALL file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

ALL format details:

To find out what program is needed to open ALL files, you need to determine the file format. Often, the file format can be deduced from the file extension or the initial bytes (called the signature). File extension, signature and file format must match; otherwise errors will occur when the file is opened. Exact knowledge of the format is therefore important in order to solve problems occurring in files. Below you will find our evaluation of the ALL files:

The ALL file extension is used very often and is used by many programs, each with its own file format. But the following two file formats are common:

• 10% of all ALL files are Cubase song files. These files are binary files, so they do not contain text, but only cryptic characters. ALL files can be up to 3 MB in size, but are often around 17 KB - 250 KB. The file type is very old and rarely used today. These files are often associated with music.
• 4% of all ALL files have the same signature .I 1. The contents of these files are easily readable with a text editor. ALL files are between 1 MB and 2 MB in size. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. 18 Editions of the Dewey Decimal Classifications, CA581203 JB March 22, 1978 8:28 PM, CACM December, 1958, Classification. The first edition of the DDC was published, Comaromi, J.P, Perlis, A. J, Preliminary Report-International Algebraic Language, Samelson,K and The present study is a history of the DEWEY Decimal. A usual file name is cacm.all or CISI.ALL. Files like these are sometimes connected to cran.

All other ALL files (86%) have different formats, frequently e.g. WordPerfect printer data, PDF, ZIP, UTF-8, sample, GRAND, ALL, ADVANTEST, MODE, ABDB, MPC and RES. They are often associated with sample, buzz, songs, data, dlib, name, seqs or ship.
