.K6 File Extension

k6 File Extension

The k6 file extension is associated with DataFlex and used for index files.

In DataFlex 2.x, the K6 index was always a 'batch' index, which means its contents were not updated when the datafile was updated. Batch indexes are only updated when the index is (re)created with dfindex or dfsort, depending on which version of DataFlex you have.

How to Open

This file type is not meant to be opened directly. There is no software that could open and work with it directly, or there is no information available in public sources about opening this file type. This is usually the case of some internal data files, caches, temporary files, etc.

Can It Be Converted?

As far as we know, this .k6 file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also, some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is, for example, the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
