What is a DH file?

DH files mostly belong to D-Link Firmware Update Utility. DH files are firmware update packages used by specific hardware devices. They contain binary data and low‐level instructions for updating device systems. These files are used in Renault systems and also serve in the update process for MediaTek devices, typically managed by the D-Link Firmware Update Utility.
They are not regular documents but are flashed onto a device to install new or improved system software. The file’s internal structure is built to protect its contents, often including checksums or signatures.
