Open INV File

A file with the INV extension is a file created by INVedit.

INVedit is a program used to create and modify inventories for the Minecraft game.

According to the developer, INVedit is the successor of NBTedit.

Minecraft is a sandbox adventure video game that allows players to build and destroy blocks and other objects in a 3D environment.

The style is called 'sandbox' or free world because it provides a creative environment without a fixed objective and with infinite possibilities.

Teaches kids creative thinking, geometry, and even a bit of geology and engineering as they build and explore worlds of creative block structures.

Its blocky design is also quite childish: the heads of the characters are square, the colors appear in large chunks, and the trees look like they were grown in a Lego lab.

The INV file contains information for items in the game's inventory:

Resources
Weapons
Mining Tools
Among other teams

Being an inventory file, it also stores the quantities of each inventory item.

When an inventory is finished editing in INVedit, it can be built into a Minecraft world file, and then the world can be loaded into the Minecraft game.

INV files can also be imported into chests, using MCEdit, a Minecraft world editor.
