Extract text from TFP files
To convert your TFP file to another format, you need SimHub or other Settings software.
To convert other file formats to the "Configuration Profile" file type, you need software like SimHub or a similar tool.
The .tfp extension serves multiple distinct technical roles, most notably as a SimHub Device Profile or a Brompton Tessera Fixture Pack.
For sim racing enthusiasts using SimHub, this file contains hardware settings and dashboard layouts stored in a JSON structure. The main drawback is that standard code editors (like VS Code or Notepad++) do not automatically recognize .tfp as readable text, forcing users to manually select a program or rename the file extension to JSON just to view the code. Additionally, sharing these configurations often requires compression to reduce file size.
In the professional AV industry, .tfp files are Tessera Fixture Packs used by Brompton Technology processors to update library definitions for LED panels. These are proprietary binary packages that cannot be edited or converted into human-readable text. Similarly, legacy D-Link network devices use this format for firmware updates, which are strictly binary.
For SimHub and Tekla Field3D users (where the file is XML-based), the best workflow is converting to JSON, XML, or TXT. This allows for easy syntax highlighting, version control in Git, and manual debugging of configuration errors without launching the full software suite.
Convert.Guru analyzes your TFP file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted XDC, SVB and VMT 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 TFP converter.
