What is a .UC2 file?

A .UC2 file is a type of compressed file archive that was made using a program called UltraCompressor II. This program is quite old and was used primarily on older operating systems. The .UC2 file can store one or several files within it, and these files are compressed to take up less space on a computer. This is useful for saving disk space or for making files smaller so they can be sent over the internet more quickly.

The UltraCompressor II software was designed to work with some specific features of older operating systems like OS/2 and Windows 95. For example, it can handle OS/2's extended attributes and the longer filenames that Windows 95 allowed, which were not supported by some other compression programs from that time.

To open a .UC2 file, you can use a few different programs: 1. **unuc2** - This is a utility specifically designed to work with .UC2 files. 2. **AIP-NL UltraCompressor II** - This is the original software used to create .UC2 files. 3. **AIP-NL UltraExpander II** - This program can be used to open and extract the contents of .UC2 files.

These programs help access the contents of a .UC2 file, allowing you to see or use the original files that have been compressed inside the .UC2 archive.
