About USP files

The .USP file extension is most commonly utilized for User State Profile data files by Citrix Profile Management and the Windows User State Migration Tool (USMT). These files store user environment variables and configuration settings, typically saved in a UTF-16 (LE) plain text format. Because these files contain highly specific system paths and registry-like data, they are inherently tied to the operating system or virtualization software that created them. This makes them difficult to move or utilize outside their native environment.

The .USP extension is also shared by several completely unrelated, proprietary formats. It serves as a SIMCA Project File for multivariate data analysis in Umetrics SIMCA software, a PL-Link project file used by Proceq Pundit ultrasonic testing equipment, and even as a downloadable printer soft font for older Hewlett-Packard PCL 5 printer drivers.

Users frequently try to convert .USP files to extract raw text, migrate system settings, or export proprietary SIMCA datasets into CSV or XLSX formats for use in Excel. Unfortunately, standard online converters fail here because SIMCA and PL-Link files are closed, proprietary binary formats. Without the original software architecture, the data cannot be properly parsed or exported. For SIMCA or PL-Link files, you generally must use the native application to export the data. Our analysis engine will identify the true underlying format (whether it is UTF-16 text, a binary project, or a font), allow you to inspect the raw text content, and attempt to extract any embedded standard files.

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

Users also converted MLC, DEL, VXD, MG and FIP files.

The USP 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 USP converter.
