Extract text from Deleaker memory snapshots (DMZ)
To convert DMZ snapshots to another format, you need Deleaker or other Developer software.
To convert other file formats to the "Debugging Data Archive" file type, you need software like Deleaker or a similar tool.
A .DMZ file is a memory profiler snapshot created by Deleaker, a C++ and .NET debugging tool developed by Softanics. Developers use this file to capture exact memory states, including application allocations, resource leaks, and detailed call stacks during software testing.
The primary disadvantage of the .DMZ format is its heavily proprietary nature. It requires an active, expensive license for Deleaker - often running as a plugin inside complex IDEs like Visual Studio - to correctly visualize the profiling data. It is not supported by web browsers, standard text editors, or basic document viewers. Without the original software, the raw memory leak data is difficult to read and navigate.
Standard online converters usually fail to process this file because it is an application-specific diagnostic snapshot, not a standard document or image. However, under the hood, a .DMZ file uses standard ZIP compression logic.
The best conversion targets for this file are ZIP, XML, or TXT. By converting or extracting the archive, you gain access to the raw diagnostic logs and text files, though you will lose the interactive call-stack interface of the original software. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. convert.guru will identify the underlying ZIP architecture, allowing you to extract the embedded text content without installing specialized debugging tools.
Convert.Guru analyzes your DMZ file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted DRMZ, XJS, XVB and C4D files.
If you want to convert DMZ file to , you can use Deleaker or similar software from the "Memory Profiler Snapshot" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….
To convert files to DMZ, try Deleaker or another comparable tool in the "Memory Profiler Snapshot" category.
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 DMZ converter.
