How to open a TOR 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 TOR file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a TOR file directly in the browser:.

TOR file format:

The file format, which is the arrangement and type of data in a file, determines which program can open 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 TOR files looks like this:

The TOR file extension is not widely used. Such a file includes different formats for the applicable programs. But the following two file formats are common:

30% of all TOR files use the same file format, which can be identified by the letters "MYP" at the beginning. These are binary files, so they do not contain words or text. The file size is in the range of 4 MB to 290 MB. The file type was developed only in the last few years. Some examples of file names are main_gfx_1.tor or swtor_en-us_global_1.tor. Such files are related to swtor, area, dynamic, global, areas, anim, creature, gamedata and misc.
25% of all TOR files start with the bytes d8:announce, which are crucial for this file format. These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. TOR files are between 15 KB and 97 KB in size. The following keywords are characteristic: creation, datei, ann13, annel31, http://retracker.local/announceee7, t-ru, VSTHOUSE, comment11, announce-listll23, announce23, uTorrent and created by13. The following filename is common: 27970_SPECTR1.tor or 26830_FLSTUD1.tor. Files like these have the following tags: amples, getfre, spectr, flstud and virtua.
