What is a SWF file?

Although Flash Player is no longer supported, SWF files can still be opened using standalone players or converted to video formats for archival and reuse.

How to open SWF files

SWF files can be opened with SWF File Player, Ruffle (Flash emulator), or Adobe Flash Projector (standalone). Flash plugins are no longer supported in browsers.

To convert SWF into video formats like MP4, use AnyConv or video capture software.
