About File Converter

File Converter is a Windows tool that converts and compresses one or several files from the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer. The homepage describes the interface as deliberately light and the application as easy to use.

Supported input and output formats are listed by category on the homepage: audio, video, images and documents. Office documents (doc, docx, odt, odp, ods, ppt, pptx, xls, xlsx) can be converted only if Microsoft Office is installed and activated. Users can add, remove or edit conversion presets in the context menu. The homepage describes the application as free, without ads or data collection, and states that it is open source under GPL v3. Its downloads are Windows installers: File Converter 2 supports Windows 7, 8, 10 and 11, and the legacy 2017 version (1.2.3) also supports Windows Vista and 32-bit systems.
