What is a 26 file?

26 files mostly belong to CamScanner. The *.26 file extension does not point to a single type of file. Instead, it is a tag used by various applications to hold files that actually follow other standard formats.
For example, many *.26 files are PDF documents (as seen with scanning tools like CamScanner). They might also be MP4 video files encoded with H.264 – similar to files sent via messaging apps such as WhatsApp. In some cases, the *.26 extension marks an Open XML document which is stored in a ZIP archive by Microsoft Office (Office).
Other uses include:

JPEG images (standard JPG files, supported by JPEG.org).

PlayStation 2 executables (ELF files managed by emulators like PCSX2).

CAD files (UGC CAD files from products like Unigraphics NX, with details available at Siemens PLM).

Compressed archives (in formats like RAR, which you can open with tools such as WinRAR).

FilExt.com tip: Because the .26 label can cover many internal formats, the best approach is to check the file’s content header or use a file identification tool. This way you can decide which standard application (like a PDF reader, media player, archive manager, or CAD viewer) is needed to open it.
Files with the extension 26 are often also jpg images or pdf documents, but zip compressed archives or medical images such as DICOM are also common. Use the Online 26 File Viewer on this page to find out the file format being used, and to view your 26 file.

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.
