Open SFX File

SFX extension files are files that can acquire various formats and applications, of which we will see some below:

Windows Self-Extracting Archive

In this section, SFX files are a type of compressed file that contains one or more files.

SFX can use one of several compression types, such as 7Z, ZIP, or RAR.

It is important to note that an SFX file is an executable, that is, it runs by itself and uncompresses and extracts the content.

One of the advantages of the SFX file is that it allows users to open the file without the need for a file unzip program.

No specific program required

SFX files can be created by several different programs, including RARLAB WinRAR, Corel WinZip, 7-Zip, ESTSoft ALZip, and Smart SFX Pro.

SoundFX Audio File

In this second application, an SFX file is an audio file saved in the SoundFX format.

It is similar to a SoundTracker type file, but is designed for sound effects.

SFX files can include audio patterns and effects, but they are usually short-lived, ie they are not used for saving songs or other long-running pieces of music.

The programs that created the SFX files are no longer developed or maintained.

However, they can be recognized by some audio tracking programs like OpenMPT.
