Extract text from RoboForm secure notes (RFN)
To convert RFN secure notes to another format, you need RoboForm or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Password Manager File" file type, you need software like RoboForm or a similar tool.
The Problem: You have a .RFN file, which is a RoboForm Secure Note created by RoboForm, a long-standing password management solution by Siber Systems. Unlike standard text files, .RFN files are heavily encrypted (often using AES or Blowfish algorithms) to protect sensitive information like ATM pins, software license keys, or Wi-Fi passwords. A major limitation is that you cannot simply double-click these files or open them in a standard text editor like Notepad; doing so reveals only unreadable binary garbage. Furthermore, if you have lost the Master Password associated with the specific installation that created the note, the file is effectively cryptographically locked forever.
The Solution: To make this data usable, the file must first be decrypted using the RoboForm client. For archiving or migrating to another password manager, the best conversion target is CSV (Comma Separated Values), which is universally supported by import tools in competitors like LastPass or 1Password. For simple reading or hard-copy backup, converting to TXT or printing to PDF is recommended.
Convert.Guru analyzes your RFN file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted RFP, RFT and RFO files.
If you want to convert RFN file to TMP, TEMP, CACHE, LOG, BAK, OLD, NEW, PART, DOWNLOAD, CRDOWNLOAD, LOCK or PID, you can use RoboForm or similar software from the "Encrypted Text Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

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 RFN converter.
