What is an RMC file?

RMC files mostly belong to Various applications. RMC files are not a single file type but rather a label used by several programs for files that serve very different functions.
For example, some RMC files use an Microsoft Compound structure to store macro commands (often called Retek Macro Command or Remedy Macro File). These contain predefined instruction sequences used for automation in systems such as Reflection for IBM i.
Other RMC files work as encrypted or redacted PDF containers. In these, the file secures PDF content and may be used in legal or sensitive document workflows, as seen with tools from Rechtsmanager or ReMarkable.
Another group of RMC files holds genealogical chart data. These files store family tree information for software like RootsMagic, sometimes termed RootsMagic Family Charts.
Some versions serve as a SQLite (SQL) database for chart data, as used by applications such as Lighthouse Charts.
A smaller category features RMC files that act as BitTorrent client metadata, for instance holding a client icon or related data for applications like uTorrent (uTorrent).
Key uses include:
  • Macro Commands – Built on Microsoft Compound formats.
  • Encrypted PDF Containers – Securing or redacting PDF content.
  • Genealogy Charts – Storing family tree data.
  • SQLite Databases – Managing structured chart data.
  • BitTorrent Metadata – Housing client icon or related information.
  • FilExt.com tip: Opening an RMC file requires knowing its origin. Check file properties or the context in which the file was created to decide whether to use a macro command viewer, a secure PDF tool, genealogy software, an SQLite browser, or a BitTorrent client.
