About TCH files

TCH files, often associated with Borland C++ programming environments, are primarily used as Turbo C Help files. These files store documentation and help information that aids developers during software development. However, TCH files have limited compatibility with modern software, which can pose significant challenges when attempting to access or convert them.

Converting TCH files to more accessible formats such as TXT, PDF, or DOC can be essential for ease of access and sharing. While there are no direct converters specifically for TCH files, one can employ Emacs or Notepad++ to open and manually copy the text to save in a different format. For more comprehensive conversion, software like Adobe Acrobat can be used to create PDF files from the text content.

It's important to note that converting TCH files can be challenging due to their outdated structure. This can lead to data loss or formatting issues during conversion. Additionally, TCH files are largely obsolete, which diminishes their practicality in contemporary computing environments.

Due to these limitations, we recommend using the free and easy online website, Convert.Guru, to convert TCH files efficiently. Simply drag-n-drop your TCH files onto the webpage to convert them into a more usable format like TXT, PDF, or DOC. For more information on file formats, visit Wikipedia.


The TCH Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began more than 25 years ago in California, when Tom Simondi published the most comprehensive database of file formats on his website. Before that, Tom had worked on Space Shuttle development at the Air Force Systems Command’s Space Division in Los Angeles. He is known as one of the top programmers of the late 1980s.

When Microsoft integrated Tom’s Filext database into Windows XP, it became the leading platform for analyzing and processing file types and formats.

Today, we use the latest technologies to analyze, process, and convert one of the world's largest collections of file formats. We are committed to developing the best TCH converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
