Opening a PROG File

The PROG file type is primarily associated with Unity.

PROG	File extension: PROG
	File type:	program data container

What is a PROG file

PROG files mostly belong to Unity. Serialized Game Data: The PROG file is often used to store serialized game data. In systems like those built with Unity, the file holds game progress or program data using a .NET serialization process. This means the game’s state is saved in a binary format that the engine can read, rather than in plain text.
HVAC Control Programs:
Other PROG files work as PLC program files for HVAC systems. For example, Trane uses these files within its Tracer system to store control instructions and settings for building management. The file in this case holds the control logic used by dedicated HVAC software.

Use the specific game engine tools for Unity-based PROG files.

For HVAC control, open the file with the proper control software.

Avoid basic text editors as the file is stored in a structured binary format.

How can I open a PROG file?

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

PROG format details:

To view or edit PROG files you need to know the file format, because it determines how the data in this file is stored. The first characters in a file identify the file format, for example, HTML files start with the bytes <html>. If the file extension does not match the file format, double-clicking on the file will cause an error upon opening. So a detailed analysis of a file is vital in order to determine the format and the associated program. Our examination of the PROG files comes to the following conclusion:

The PROG file extension is not found very often and is used by many programs, each with its own file format. The file formats most commonly found in PROG files are:

10% of all PROG files are based on the popular .NET file format. The .NET format is used to save Microsoft .NET Framework objects to a file (ex. save game state as file) via object serialization. Such a .NET object may contain functions and data like settings, images or videos. These files contain neither text nor words, but only data. Most of these files are 220 bytes to 1 KB in size. The keywords FAssembly-CSharp, Version=0.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null, QuestManager+ResourceStockpile and resources are typical for these files. The file name stockpile.prog or exploration.prog is characteristic of these files. Such files sometimes refer to progress.
10% of all PROG files internally utilize the ELF file format. ELF is the abbreviation for Executable and Linkable Format and is the standard binary format on Linux and Unix. If you open these files in a text editor, you will see only illegible characters. The average file size is 16 KB with most files being between 5 KB and 250 KB in size. A common filename is prog..

The remaining 80% of all PROG files are files with no common format. These files sometimes refer to controller. If you want to find out which format your PROG file belongs to, just click on the button "Choose your .prog file to analyze".

How to solve problems with PROG files

Associate the PROG file extension with the correct application.
Update your software that should actually open program data containers. Because only the current version supports the latest PROG file format. Search, therefore, e.g. on the manufacturer website after an available Unity update.
To make sure that your PROG file is not corrupted or virus-infected, get the file again and scan it with Google's virustotal.com.
