File Type 2 Compressed File Archive
Popularity 2 stars  Uncommon
Category Compressed Files
File Description Compressed file archive created either as a Macintosh Hierarchical File System (HFS) archive or an MS-DOS archive using standard MS-DOS compression; contains a collection of compressed files, each being compressed potentially with a different compression technique.

ARC files were commonly used in the late 1980s and early 1990s; they are rarely used now and have been replaced by newer, more efficient compression algorithms.

While ARC files were used primarily for MS-DOS and older versions of Macintosh computers, several current programs can still open them, such as StuffIt and WinZip.
