The 86V file extension identifies a vector graphic file used by the TI-86 graphing calculator from Texas Instruments.
These files store vector graphic data for use with the calculator's graphics functions. They are one of the file types associated with the TI-86.
The TI-86 is a Texas Instruments graphing calculator. Because the format is specific to that device, it is not generally used by modern desktop graphics applications.
Use an 86V file on a TI-86 graphing calculator by transferring it to the calculator with compatible TI calculator-link hardware and software. The file is not normally viewable directly in a standard desktop graphics application.
On a computer, the file can generally be retained for transfer to a TI-86, but support for opening or editing it independently may be unavailable.
There is no broadly supported conversion tool for the TI-86 vector format. The practical way to use the file is to transfer it to a TI-86 calculator.
If the graphic must be used in another format, it may need to be recreated in a graphics application or captured from the calculator and saved in a supported image format.
