What is a QRC file?

QRC files mostly belong to Qt SDK by Qt. QRC stands for Qt Resource Collection file. QRC file format is used to store setting files associated with the software application suite Qt, developed by Digia.

Main Use: Qt is a full-fledged developed framework containing all the necessary tools needed for creating various applications as well as their GUI for desktop, smartphone, and embedded platforms. QRC files are XML files used by programs that are generated using the Qt software suite. QRC files consist of resources used by applications (such as image files) that come bundled with the associated Qt-created application.
Other Uses: QRC files are used by the page layout and designing software, QuarkXPress. QuarkXpress uses QRC files to store application component information needed for the proper functioning of the application such as color management and spell checking. It is possible to add components other than the ones that are already in the QRC files using the XNT files (XNT stands for extensions).

How to open a QRC file

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