What is a UTI file?

UTI files mostly belong to SafeGuard, KotOR Tool, ZIP extractor. The UTI file does not represent a single standard format. Its contents depend on its origin and intended use.
For example, one type of UTI file acts as a game item file used with the BioWare Aurora Engine. This file stores game assets for titles like Knights of the Old Republic and is often handled with specialized mod tools such as the KotOR Tool.
Another format is an encrypted file created by the Utimaco SafeGuard system. These files secure data with SafeGuard encryption methods and require proprietary decryption software. More information is available on the Utimaco website.
A third usage sees the UTI extension on a file that internally uses the ZIP format to contain an Excel workbook or a compressed dictionary. In this case, renaming the file to a .zip extension and extracting its contents can allow you to open the document in a spreadsheet program.

Game Item File: Holds game assets for BioWare titles.
Encrypted File: Utilizes Utimaco's encryption and requires SafeGuard software.
Compressed File: Contains a ZIP archive such as an Excel workbook.

FilExt.com notes: Determine the file's source before attempting to open it. A quick look at the file header or consulting its origin can help decide which tool to use. Always back up the file before using unfamiliar software.
