What is an .XESC file?
XESC files are video files saved in the Microsoft Expression Screen Capture format, which stores screen recordings created with Microsoft Expression Encoder. The format was developed by Microsoft to capture on-screen activity for software demonstrations, tutorials, presentations, and training videos while preserving high visual quality. XESC files were commonly created by users of Microsoft Expression Studio and Expression Encoder before the software was discontinued.
You may encounter XESC files when accessing archived screen recordings, opening older training or instructional videos, or working with legacy Microsoft Expression projects. File Viewer Plus can play XESC files and convert them to MP4, making them compatible with most devices and media players.
