What is a HI file?

HI files mostly belong to Hindi Word Processor.

The HI file may not always be what it seems. Its primary use is as a Hindi language text file generated by a Hindi Word Processor. The content is stored in plain text and holds text in Hindi, which you can view or edit using a text editor that supports Unicode.

  • Hindi text file: Contains language data from Hindi word processing software.
  • Haskell Intermediate Language file: Used by Haskell compilers (like GHC) to store a module's interface for linking. More details are at Haskell's website.
  • JPEG image file: In some cases, a HI file holds JPEG image data. Such files may be created by image-editing tools (e.g., Adobe Photoshop) or used as cache files in apps like Samsung Gallery.

Note: The same HI extension is used for different file types. To determine its actual use, try opening the file in a plain text editor; if you see readable Hindi text, it is a text file. If the content is encoded or binary, it may be a Haskell interface file or even an image file.
FilExt.com tip: Use the appropriate software for viewing—text editors or a dedicated Hindi Word Processor for text; Haskell tools for code interfaces; and standard image viewers for JPEG images.

How to open HI files

You need a suitable software like Hindi Word Processor to open a HI 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 HI file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a HI file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
