How to open file with .AUP extension?

Don’t you know what program to use to convert the .AUP file? Do you want to convert a .AUP file into a different format? Below you will find helpful information.

File extension .AUP

Full Name Developer Category
Audacity Project Format Audacity Audio Files
.AUP

The .AUP file is the main type of Audacity Project, a proprietary file type used exclusively to store and recall projects created in the cross-platform, open-source audio editing platform Audacity. It contains metadata on all edits, effects, and settings that have been applied to the file or project, as well as all audio data associated with the project. The .AUP is a unique non-destructive audio editing program in comparison to more commonly used formats like .WAV, .MP3, and .FLAC.

File Properties

Audacity utilizes the .AUP format to capture various information regarding an ongoing project. The project file stores key parameters like sample rate, number of tracks, and audio devices, as well as the amplifier settings for each track recorded. In addition, the creative elements included are also documented in an encapsulation algorithm. This process essentially makes copies of all sounds related to the project.


In addition to the .AUP, Audacity also generates corresponding temporary files for projects. These include .WAV, .MP3, and .FLAC. Other associated files can be scripts used to automate tasks within Audacity. The naming conventions are defaulted for each specific operating system so appropriate linking is established on applying operations from one program into another.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .AUP) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .AUP extension.

When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.

Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .AUP file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .AUP extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .AUP extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .AUP file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.

Other instructions

If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .AUP file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.

In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .AUP file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .AUP file) will be extended to the maximum.

It is also good to check

  • if the .AUP file has no errors
  • or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
In such a case it is best to try to download the .AUP file again from the same source on the Internet (or look for another source). If you received the file from another person, ask this person to re-send it. However, if the file was copied from some media, repeat the copying operation.
