FilExt.com note: This file keeps precise calibration details that are integral to ensuring measurement accuracy. To view or adjust a C2 file, use the dedicated calibration software.
How to open a C2 file
You need a suitable software like WinCal to open a C2 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 C2 file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a C2 file directly in the browser:.

Programs that open and convert C2 files:
- WinCal
See the previous paragraphs to learn more about the main application. C2 files are often referred to as WinCal settings because this type of file is primarily created or used by this software.
- Pov-ray for Windows (v3.1 Scenes Advanced Newltpot File) by Persistence of Vision Raytracer Pty Ltd.An older Windows 3.1 file format, not generally used today.
C2 file extension format:
If you can determine the file format, the associated program can also be determined. The file format can be deduced from the file extension and the signature. However, different programs can use the same file extension. Furthermore, a file extension can be renamed incorrectly and double-clicking on it will then display an error when it is opened. When there is a problem with a file, the first step to solving it is to determine the file format. Our examination of the C2 files comes to the following conclusion:
The C2 file ending includes very many different file formats. The two most common formats are as follows:
- 3% of all C2 files start with the magic bytes WinCal, which are always the first bytes of this file format. The content consists of illegible binary data, which can only be read and interpreted by the associated programs. The file size is in the range of 37 KB to 210 KB. Several words can almost always be found in the files, e.g. StartData and WinCal.
- 3% of all C2 files are associated with Codec2 compressed audio. The contents of these files cannot be read by a human; only a computer program can interpret the data. The files are often between 280 bytes and 19 KB in size.
All other C2 files (94%) have no uniform format. They are often associated with steam, disc, protonbus, line, computer, solarisu, magvar, piping, system, level, model, score, pump or skid. Drag & drop your file here to see the file format and a preview of your C2 file!
