The LIC file extension is used in different software applications for licensing purposes. It serves as a container that stores information about relevant license agreements. In general, the LIC file is associated with commercial applications and utilities such as those from Microsoft Windows or Adobe Creative Cloud. The file’s data can be plain text, an XML document, or other variations which are associated with a particular licensing system.
Software Licenses
Much like other software installation processes, the LIC file keeps track of user licensing information that are associated with specific applications or utilities. These licenses are executed as part of the program's install routines and enable what features and capabilities the user can access. This ensures the programs or utilities they have purchased abide by the terms and conditions set forth by the software developer.
Related File Extensions
Similar types file extensions which are also used to license software are the CFPKG, MLI, NLIC, VLI, and PLP. They all store proprietary data that is unique to the application it is associated with.

After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .LIC) 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 .LIC 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 .LIC 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 .LIC 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 .LIC extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .LIC file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .LIC 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 .LIC file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .LIC file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .LIC file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
