About TCS files

The .TCS file extension primarily represents two very different data types: a Product Configuration State file used by Tacton Systems in their Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ) software, or a Voice Message Audio file generated by Telesis Computer Telephony Integration (CTI) systems. Tacton .TCS files store complex product rules and quotes in an XML structure. Telesis .TCS files store recorded voice communications using a RIFF container. You need to convert .TCS files because they are highly proprietary and useless outside their native environments. Tacton users face vendor lock-in, requiring active licenses to process quotes. Telesis audio files often fail to play in standard media players. For Tacton files, standard XML or JSON are the best target formats to extract raw configuration data. For Telesis audio, converting to WAV or MP3 ensures broad playback compatibility. Because these are specialized formats, standard online converters usually fail. Telesis audio might use proprietary codecs, and Tacton XML schemas are complex. Just drag and drop your file onto convert.guru to identify the format, view its internal structure, and convert it when possible. If our analysis detects a supported underlying XML or RIFF embedded format, viewing or extraction is fast and easy.

Convert.Guru analyzes your TCS file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted TCP, JPG, PDF and TSX files.

The TCS Converter Story

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 TCS converter.
