What is a .BMP file?
A BMP file is an image saved in the Bitmap (BMP) format, one of the earliest raster graphics formats developed by Microsoft for use on Windows. The format stores image data pixel by pixel, which often results in large file sizes since BMP files are typically uncompressed. BMP images also support various color depths, ranging from monochrome to 24-bit and beyond.
You might encounter BMP files in older Windows software, simple graphics projects, scanned images, or early digital icons and UI elements, where uncompressed, high-quality images were needed. Today, BMP is less common because formats like PNG and JPEG provide smaller file sizes and better compression. File Viewer Plus can open and convert BMP files to other formats, including JPG, PNG, TIFF, and GIF, for easier sharing and reduced file sizes.
