Extract text from Experian and TurboTax files (1PE)
To convert 1PE Data files to another format, you need Intuit TurboTax or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Proprietary Data File" file type, you need software like Intuit TurboTax or a similar tool.
A .1PE file primarily functions as an Experian credit report data file or a TurboTax Form File developed by Intuit. In the context of TurboTax, these files store encoded layout instructions and text data necessary to render U.S. tax forms on Windows systems. In other instances, the format operates as a proprietary, compressed data container for the X-Plane flight simulator or stores specialized credit records for Experian.
The main disadvantage of the .1PE format is its highly locked-down, proprietary nature. Because these files contain specialized financial records or application-specific encoded data, they cannot be opened by standard text editors or web browsers. Trying to access a .1PE file directly usually results in unreadable characters or a software error unless it is loaded through the exact software version that created it. Furthermore, the format does not support native export capabilities to standard, accessible documents. If our analysis detects unencrypted text, XML layers, or supported embedded formats, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your 1PE file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our 1PE converter.
