About VAULT files
A .VAULT file is typically an encrypted container used by mobile privacy applications to hide personal photos and videos. On mobile devices, apps like Calculator Vault or Vaulty Stocks scramble standard JPG images or MP4 videos and rename them with the .vault extension to hide them from the system gallery. In enterprise environments, this extension is also associated with HashiCorp Vault, where it functions as an ELF executable or encrypted data file for secrets management. Another rare instance is the Fontcase Vault File developed by Bohemian Coding. To open or recover mobile .vault files, users normally need the original Android application alongside the correct PIN. Users try to convert these files when they upgrade phones, lose the original app, or forget passwords, leaving personal media inaccessible. Standard online converters fail to process these files because the data is deliberately encrypted. Renaming the extension back to JPG or MP4 rarely works. The best conversion targets for media recovery are JPG for images and MP4 for videos. However, because this is a closed, proprietary format designed for privacy, it is extremely difficult to bypass the encryption. If our analysis detects a supported underlying or embedded format, viewing or conversion may still be possible.
Convert.Guru analyzes your VAULT file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
If you want to convert VAULT file to BASE64, HEX, BIN, ENC, CRYPT, AES, DES, RSA, PGP, GPG, ASC or KEY, you can use HashiCorp Vault or similar software from the "Encrypted Media Storage" category. In the File menu, look for Save As… or Export….

The VAULT 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 VAULT converter.
