Extract text from FHF files
To convert your FHF file to another format, you need Free Hide Folder or other Backup software.
To convert other file formats to the "Privacy Tool Data" file type, you need software like Free Hide Folder or a similar tool.
The .FHF file is a proprietary backup container or configuration database generated by Cleanersoft Free Hide Folder. It is designed to store the mapping coordinates, encryption keys, and directory structures of folders that have been hidden from the operating system for privacy.
Users typically encounter this file after uninstalling the software or attempting to migrate hidden data to a new machine. A common point of friction is the misconception that .FHF is a standard archive (like ZIP or RAR) that can be extracted with generic tools. It is not. The file is heavily obfuscated and often password-protected, meaning it has zero compatibility with standard file viewers, web browsers, or third-party converters.
Critical Warning: In many versions of the software, the .FHF file contains only the pointers to the hidden data on your local disk, not the files themselves. If you have formatted your hard drive, this file may be insufficient to recover your data. To access the contents, you must reinstall the original software, import the .FHF file, and use the "Unhide" function. This "converts" the data back to its accessible state, allowing you to open your original JPG images, MP4 videos, or DOCX documents.
Convert.Guru analyzes your FHF file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted UTL, CYG and FUD files.

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 FHF converter.
