What is a .OFR file?
The .OFR file extension is used for a type of audio file. These files are created by a program called OptimFROG. OptimFROG is special because it can make audio files smaller without losing any of the original sound quality. This process is known as lossless compression. OptimFROG started being used in 2001.
The .OFR files are a bit different from other audio files you might know, like MP3s, because they use a special way of storing the sound that not all music or media players can understand. This means you can't just play these files on any program that plays music.
To open or listen to .OFR files, you need specific programs. One of these programs is the OptimFROG Lossless Audio Compressor itself, which can both create and play these files. Other programs that can open .OFR files include Nullsoft Winamp and Foobar2000, but you have to add a special OptimFROG plug-in to them first. This plug-in is like a little helper that lets these programs understand and play .OFR files.
Lastly, it's mentioned that the OptimFROG Lossless Audio Compressor was related to something called Systems Management Server, but it's now part of something else called System Center Configuration Manager. This part is more about how the software is managed and updated in professional or business settings, and it's not directly related to playing or opening .OFR files.
