What is a ACE file?

ACE is a proprietary archive format developed by WinAce. It was once popular for its high compression rates but has largely fallen out of use due to limited software support and security concerns.

ACE files may still be encountered in old archives or backups but often require special software like WinAce or third-party extractors.

How to open ACE files

ACE files can be opened with WinAce or older versions of WinRAR. Support for ACE has been discontinued in many modern tools due to security concerns.

If needed, convert ACE files with AnyConv or use legacy tools with caution on isolated systems.
