Open DAT1 File

DAT1 file extensions are often used in data storage and transfer. They are relatively common, albeit slightly obscure, and because of this, there are different formats and ways to open them. The intention behind creating a DAT1 file is for it to be a part of an application's data files. Still, not all software developers follow the same standard, which results in various formats for DAT1 files.

Application Data Files

Most commonly, DAT1 files refer to application data files. A company that produces a specific piece of software may choose to use .dat1 file extensions for its application data files. These files then assist the program in performing its tasks. You can open them using the software that created them in the first place. For example, if a video game produced the DAT1 file, you would use the same game to open it. However, File Magic can open many types of these files and is generally used when the original software is not available.

Generic Data Files
