What is an HPF file?

HPF files mostly belong to HighScore Plus. HPF files store specialized scientific data.
Some HPF files are X-ray diffraction data files created by HighScore Plus. These use the zlib compression method to pack complex measurements and calibration details from X-ray experiments.
Other HPF files are produced by QuickDAQ data loggers to record sensor and experimental data. For more information on these, visit the Dataq Instruments website.

  • HighScore Plus: X-ray diffraction analysis with compressed data.
  • QuickDAQ: Data logger file for time-based sensor readings.

FilExt.com tip: Use the corresponding specialized software to open and view these files.

How to open an HPF file

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