What is a TEN file

TEN files mostly belong to WinZip/Primavera. Your TEN file is used to hold and exchange tender data. It follows the Tender Exchange Format and is built using a standard ZIP compression structure.

Function: It is designed for the exchange of tender documents and related data.

Internal Structure: The file is essentially a ZIP archive, which means you can open it using common decompression tools such as WinZip or 7-Zip.

Alternate Usage: In some cases, a TEN file may contain a Primavera P6 Project Plan. For these, using the designated project management software is recommended.

A quick trick is to rename the file extension to .zip and test open it with your decompression tool.

If there are problems opening a file, you must first determine the file format used. Our examination of the TEN files comes to the following conclusion:
