About CCC files
The .CCC extension represents a critical fork in file types: it is either a file held hostage by TeslaCrypt 2.0 ransomware, a Creation Club manifest for Bethesda games, or a mislabeled SSL Certificate.
1. Ransomware Encrypted Files (Most Common): If your photos or documents suddenly have a .ccc extension, they were encrypted by the TeslaCrypt virus. Do not pay the ransom. The master decryption key was released publicly in 2016. These files cannot be opened by standard viewers until they are "converted" (decrypted) back to their original formats (e.g., JPG, DOCX, XLS) using specific tools.
2. Creation Club & Configuration: For gamers, a .ccc file is often a benign text list used by Skyrim Special Edition or Fallout 4 to manage Creation Club content load orders. Similarly, users of WiinUPro use this format to save Nintendo controller mapping profiles.
3. Security Certificates: Rarely, .ccc is used as a non-standard extension for X.509 certificates. Web servers like Apache or IIS typically require these to be converted to CRT, PEM, or KEY to function correctly.
Recommendation:
For Ransomware: Use the free TeslaDecoder tool to restore files.
For Certificates: Convert to CRT or PEM for broad compatibility.
For Games: Edit with any text editor like Notepad++.

The CCC Converter Story
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 CCC converter.
