About ADI files

The .adi extension primarily identifies the Amateur Data Interchange Format (ADIF), a standardized text-based format used by amateur radio enthusiasts to log and exchange contact data (QSOs). While highly portable, raw .adi files rely on tag-based syntax (e.g., <call:6>KA1XYZ) that is difficult to read or analyze without specialized logging software like WSJT-X or HRD Logbook. Users frequently need to convert these logs to CSV or XLSX to visualize contact statistics in Microsoft Excel, or to KML to map signal paths in Google Earth.

Alternatively, a significant portion of .adi files are proprietary disk images created by AOMEI Backupper or Active@ Disk Image. These are binary system backups containing exact copies of hard drives. The challenge with backup .adi files is proprietary lock-in; they cannot be opened by standard tools like Windows Explorer or 7-Zip. To access the data without the original paid software, users often look to convert them to universal formats like ISO or VHD for virtualization, or simply extract specific documents.

Convert.Guru analyzes your ADI file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted ADIF, PBD, ISO, AD1, CSV, LOG, TXT, PNG, IMG, PDF, TIBX, JPG and ODT files.
