Open DLC File

DLC extension files arefiles that were encrypted through the JDownloader program.

JDownloader is an open source download manager, written in Java, which gives users the ability to download automatically divided files, through a single click through hosting sites, such as Megaupload and Rapidshare.

In this way, not only the container, but also the parts of the content that the DLC files have are encrypted by means of a strong encryption such as AES. Encryption with AES makes it practically impossible to open and / or view the file with the DLC extension if no pre-decryption is performed.

In order to decrypt a DLC file, it is necessary to open it with JDownloader, which sends it to the JDownloader DRM-server, through a query, in order to receive both the authorization and the key required for decryption.
