Open ABS File

ABS extension files are files that can take on various formats, depending on your application.

Absolute Database

In this case, an ABS file extension is a database file created by Absolute Database, a database engine for Delphi IDE software development.

Absolute Database is a Delphi database engine that replaces the Borland Database Engine (BDE).

Absolute Database is a compact, high speed, robust and easy to use database engine.

An ABS extension file stores data in a structured relational format and supports in-memory encoding and performance.

ABS files are used by software developers to store data with their applications.

You can create an ABS database using the DBManager utility included in the Absolute DB installation set.

You can also create an ABS database from your application using the CreateDatabase method of the TABSDatabase component.

TurboZIP

In this second case, the ABS extension file is a file created by TurboZIP, a file compression and decompression utility.

TurboZIP is a file management tool with a user-friendly interface that opens Zip, RAR and reliably extracts all files.

The software compresses at 9 levels, and is capable of internally previewing over 200 formats so you know exactly what's inside a file and how to do it.

The ABS file saves all the criteria specified by the user to compress a group of files, and can be reused to compress another group of files with the same options.

Avant Browser

In this section, ABS file is a skin file used by Avant Browser, a customizable web browser.

Avant Browser is a free web browser developed in China by Anderson Che, which makes use of Trident, Gecko and Webkit browser engines that the user can choose from.

Avant Browser has been discontinued since 2020, which is its latest stable version.

The ABS extension file, in this case, saves graphics and settings that are used to configure the appearance of the browser, and allows users to change the appearance of the user interface.
