What is CMP file?
The .CMP file extension is associated with the PKWare Compression Library (PCL), an application that provides data compression and archiving services developed by PKWare. The CMP file is used to store data in a compressed format and is created using the PCL software. It is used to reduce the size of files for transmission or storage, and in many cases the files can be significantly smaller than the original form. [ ⏩ ] CMP file extension

How to convert the file from CMP to ANX?
To successfully convert the CMP file to ANX, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.CMP). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case ANX (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than ANX).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. CMP to ANX. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting CMP files to ANX files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension ANX, while before this step we had the CMP file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new ANX file, or not.
