What is an LRS file

LRS files mostly belong to Media player / Lexar Recovery / Tax software. LRS files come in several types and are not limited to a single purpose.
  • Video File / Laser Scan Data: Some LRS files are structured using the MP4 format. They act as video files or containers for laser scan data. You can open these with a compatible media player. For more details, see MP4 file format.
  • Lexar Encrypted File: Other LRS files are encrypted and managed by Lexar Media. They are produced by Lexar Recovery Software and are linked to Lexar Secure II. Use Lexar’s official tools to access these files. More info is available at Lexar.
  • German Tax File: A further variation of LRS files is used in the German context. These files serve as tax files produced by LASG and may also be described as laser scan raw data files. Open them with the designated tax or data management software.
    • FilExt.com tip: Determine the file’s origin by checking its properties; the correct software depends on which of these uses applies.

    LRS file format:

    The file format determines how the data is stored in the file. Each file format has a unique extension and almost always a unique signature. For example, Microsoft Word documents have the extension .docx and the signature (usually the first 3 characters in this file) PK. 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. Our evaluation of the LRS files looks like this:
