About TMG files

TMG files, associated with The Master Genealogist, are specialized formats used for genealogical data storage. While TMG files serve their purpose within specific genealogy software, they pose challenges when you need to access or share the data in more universally recognized formats.

Common file extensions to which TMG files can be converted include .GED (GEDCOM), .CSV, .PDF, and .TXT. Converting TMG files can enhance accessibility and compatibility with other software and systems.

For Windows users, The Master Genealogist software itself can export TMG files to GEDCOM format. Additionally, using Microsoft Excel can be an option for converting TMG to CSV via intermediate steps.

Conversion challenges arise due to the complex data structures within TMG files, potentially leading to data loss or format inconsistencies. Understanding these challenges is crucial to ensure data integrity. Furthermore, TMG software's discontinuation in 2014 limits direct support and updates, making conversion necessary for users who want to preserve or share their genealogical data.

While TMG files are robust for genealogical research, their limitations in broader applications highlight the need for conversion. The Convert.Guru website offers a simple, drag-and-drop interface to convert TMG files into more versatile formats like GED, CSV, and PDF, ensuring the data remains accessible and usable across various platforms.

Despite the drawbacks of TMG files, such as compatibility issues and discontinued support, converting these files using Convert.Guru ensures you're not constrained by these limitations. Simply drag and drop your TMG files to start converting them effortlessly.

The TMG 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 TMG converter by continuously improving quality, usability, and reliability.
