What is UIF file?
The UIF (Universal Image Format) is a disc image file format developed by Gracion Software, Inc. It is used to create disc image files that are used for backup and storage of data. The format has been developed to provide a high-quality, secure way of storing data on CDs, DVDs, and Blu-ray discs with standard compression and password protection. The UIF file extension is an acronym for its name, which stands for Universal Image Format Disc Image. [ ⏩ ] UIF file extension
What is C2D file?
The C2D (WinOnCD Disc Image) file extension is used for disc image files created using Roxio WinOnCD. It includes all the pertinent data from a CD or DVD, such as bootable data, file system, ISO 9660, UDF formats and others. C2D is a compressed file type that takes up 75 percent less disk space than other files of similar size. Roxio WinOnCD, released in the late 1990s, is the first software program to support the C2D file format. [ ⏩ ] C2D file extension
How to convert the file from UIF to C2D?
To successfully convert the UIF file to C2D, 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.UIF). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case C2D (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 C2D).
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. UIF to C2D. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting UIF files to C2D 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 C2D, while before this step we had the UIF file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new C2D file, or not.
