File Conversor is a free, open-source, cross-platform file manipulation and conversion utility. It allows conversion between various file types—as seen in popular GUI tools like FormatFactory—while also providing additional features such as rotation, compression, merging, mirroring, and more. The software is operable via command-line interface and integrates with OS file explorers (e.g., Windows Explorer, Nautilus, Dolphin, Finder).

History

File Conversor was designed in Python by Andre Luiz Romano Madureira[1] as a cross-platform solution. The first public release (version 0.1.1) was published via Chocolatey for Windows on August 6, 2025.[2] It was inspired by existing open-source utilities such as FormatFactory and Tichau’s File Converter.[3]

Features

  • Multi-format conversion: Audio, video, image, and document formats
  • Batch processing via CLI or file explorer context menu
  • File manipulation: rotate, mirror, compress, merge, split
  • Cross-platform support: Windows, Linux, macOS
  • Integration with file managers (Windows Explorer, support for other file managers on the way)
  • Automatic external dependency installation: using package managers (Scoop, Chocolatey, Homebrew)
