An INST file extension is used by several different types of software and can be opened or used in multiple ways. The methodology and program needed to open an INST file largely depends on what's contained inside, with one INST file potentially ranging greatly from the next in terms of content.

### Sibelius Instrument Files ###

When Sibelius needs to know how to play back a specific instrument's notes, it refers to the respective INST file. These files can be opened by launching the Sibelius software (download Sibelius here) and then opening the INST file from within the program.

### Adobe Instruments ###

Adobe employs the INST file extension for use with its InDesign software suite. This use of the INST file extension is exclusive to Adobe and contains information about how to replicate the formatting of documents produced within the Adobe InDesign suite (download Adobe InDesign here). To open or use these files, you would need to open them within the Adobe InDesign.

### ByteBloc Software ###

INST files are also used by ByteBloc software as a way to backup and restore data. For example, in the event of a system crash, an INST file can be created and then used to restore lost data (download ByteBloc here). To open an INST file in ByteBloc software, one would have to launch the program, navigate to the file tab, select open, and then choose their respective INST files.

###INST File Important Information###

It's important to remember that not all INST files are made the same, so the program needed to open an INST file might be one of many. The best first step is to understand what the INST file contains, as this should give you a hint as to what program is needed to open it. As always, ensure that the software you're using to open an INST file is up to date. If an INST file refuses to open, it may be because you're trying to open it in the wrong software, or it may simply be damaged or corrupt - so be careful when handling them.
