What is a .APC file extension?

.APC file extension is created by IBM. .APC has been classified as Settings, options, themes or skins Files.

.APC is Lotus printer driver characters

The apc file extension is associated with the Lotus 1-2-3, a spreadsheet editing software for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS and MS-DOS operating system.

The apc file contains characters for printer driver.

Lotus 1-2-3 is obsolete product without support from IBM.

.APC file format is deprecated and this file format is no longer supported.

Currently, .APC file type is not actively used and is obsolete. This usually happens with system files in older operating systems, files from long-discontinued software, or with previous versions of some file types (documents, projects, images, etc.) that were replaced in later versions of the original programs.


How to open:

This file type is not meant to be opened directly, there is no software that could open and work with it directly, or there is no information available in public sources about opening this file type. This is usually the case of some internal data files, caches, temporary files etc.

How to convert:

As far as we know, this .apc file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.

How to fix problems with .APC files

  1. You need to update the application that you normally use to open .APC files. Only the latest version of the software supports the current .APC file format
  2. You need to check the .APC file for viruses. To do this, you need to scan it with a popular antivirus (Norton, Nod32, Kaspersky, Dr.Web, etc.)
