Extract text from Remark Quick Stats files (RQS)
To convert RQS statistics files to another format, you need Respondus LockDown Browser or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Quiz Statistics File" file type, you need software like Respondus LockDown Browser or a similar tool.
The .RQS file is utilized primarily as a Respondus Quiz Statistics file by educational software like Respondus LockDown Browser and Respondus 4.0. Alternatively, it functions as an exam and survey statistics report generated by Gravic Remark Office OMR. Beneath the proprietary extension, these files are structured as standard ZIP archives that contain raw statistical data regarding student assessments, quiz performance, and survey metrics.
The core disadvantage of the .RQS format is its closed, proprietary nature. These files are inextricably tied to specialized academic software. You cannot open them directly in widely used applications like Microsoft Excel or standard web browsers. Users face immense friction because viewing the raw data usually requires a costly software license or access to restricted university computers.
Most users look to convert .RQS files into accessible, universal targets like CSV, XLSX, or PDF to analyze results or share performance metrics with peers. However, because this file format is difficult to open or convert, standard online converters routinely fail to process it. Often, only the original software can properly read or export the assessment data.
Despite these strict limitations, convert.guru offers a practical workaround. Just drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. Since our analysis detects the supported underlying ZIP embedded format, convert.guru can inspect the file, extract the hidden contents, and show embedded text or data, making assessment recovery possible without the original software.
Convert.Guru analyzes your RQS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
