Extract text from TPK files
To convert your TPK file to another format, you need Tizen Studio or other Compressed software.
To convert other file formats to the "Software Deployment Package" file type, you need software like Tizen Studio or a similar tool.
The .tpk file extension is a container format with three distinct, incompatible uses that often confuse users. Most commonly, it serves as a Tizen Application Package, a compressed archive used to install apps on Samsung TVs, wearables, and smartphones. In professional mapping, it represents an ArcGIS Tile Package, storing offline map data as a bundle of images. It is also widely used in gaming as a texture archive for titles like Need for Speed and The Witcher 3.
The primary issue with .tpk files is their opacity; operating systems treat them as unrecognized generic binary files, preventing users from inspecting contents or editing assets. Tizen files are essentially ZIP archives in disguise, while ArcGIS and game files use proprietary structures that require expensive software like ArcGIS Pro or niche modding tools to open.
For Tizen files, the most practical conversion is to ZIP, allowing immediate extraction of source code and assets. For ArcGIS packages, users typically convert map tiles to standard images like PNG, JPG, or GeoTIFF for use in other GIS software or web viewers. Gamers modifying textures should look to convert internal assets to DDS or PNG for editing in tools like Adobe Photoshop.
Convert.Guru analyzes your TPK file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

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 TPK converter.
