About DEPOT files

A .DEPOT file typically serves one of two distinct functions: an HP-UX software package archive or a Logitech G HUB device resource and firmware package. HP-UX uses this format alongside its Software Distributor utility (swinstall) to package, distribute, and deploy applications across HP's Unix-based systems. Alternatively, modern gaming software like Logitech G HUB uses .DEPOT files internally to store firmware updates, lighting profiles, and hardware resource assets for connected peripherals.

The main disadvantage of the .DEPOT format is its highly proprietary and system-locked nature. HP-UX packages require a specific Unix operating system to execute, and Logitech packages are internal application files not designed for manual user interaction. This closed nature makes them difficult to work with outside their native environments. You cannot convert a .DEPOT package directly into a standard executable like an EXE or an MSI.

Standard online converters will fail to process these files because they are complex data containers, not simple documents or media. Because this file format is difficult to open or convert, often only the original software can properly read or export the data. However, convert.guru can still identify the file format, inspect the file, and show text or internal content. For instance, HP-UX depots frequently use a standard TAR structure underneath. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert or extract its embedded files if supported.

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

Users also converted GWD, NPZ and DOI files.
