What is a FI file

FI files mostly belong to 1C:Enterprise. FI files serve more than one purpose. A major use, representing some of such files, is as a 1C:Enterprise data file. These files store business data in a proprietary format used by the 1C:Enterprise system to manage internal operations and databases. They often contain structured information specific to enterprise processes and require the 1C:Enterprise application to access and modify the data.
some of FI files are structured as PDF form files. In these cases, the file holds data in a PDF-like format intended for form entry and printing, and they are typically handled by Adobe Acrobat Reader.
Key details compiled by FilExt.com include:
  • Enterprise data files designed for 1C systems
  • PDF-based form files managed by Adobe Acrobat Reader
  • Proprietary file structures that require specific software
  • Tips for usage:
  • Use 1C:Enterprise for files meant for internal business data.
  • For PDF form files, use Adobe Acrobat Reader.
  • Check the file header if you are unsure which format applies.
  • For more information on the 1C:Enterprise system, visit the 1C official site.

    How to open FI files

    You need a suitable software like 1C:Enterprise to open a FI 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 FI file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a FI file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.

    FI file format:

    Every file has a defined file format, i.e. how the data is arranged in the file. The initial characters of a file are called signature, sometimes also referred to as "magic bytes". The signature can be used to infer the file format. However, different programs can use the same file extension, and file extensions can be assigned incorrectly. If there are problems opening a file, you must first determine the file format used. Below is our analysis of the FI files:

    FI is seldom used as a file extension and is used by different programs with different formats. The following file formats are most commonly found in FI files:

    How to solve problems with FI files

    • Associate the FI file extension with the correct application.
    • Update your software that should actually open data files. Because only the current version supports the latest FI file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available 1C:Enterprise update.
    • To make sure that your FI file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
