ClearSight Analyzer provides real-time visualization of network traffic in application-centric network environments. An ADC file belongs to the data used by the application during its analysis work.
The exact information stored in an ADC file depends on the ClearSight Analyzer operation that created it. The file should therefore be kept with the related ClearSight Analyzer data rather than edited manually.
Open the ADC file in ClearSight Analyzer on Microsoft Windows. Use the program's file-opening or analysis functions.
Other applications may not be able to interpret the file correctly. Renaming the file or opening it in a text editor will not make its contents readable.
Open the file in ClearSight Analyzer and use the program's available export or reporting functions if the analysis can be saved in another format.
If ClearSight Analyzer cannot open the file, conversion may not be possible without the original software and any related files it requires.

Bitmap image file
Date updated: November 9, 2026
A ScanStudio adc file stores 16-colour bitmap image data. It was intended for graphics used with ScanStudio and is associated with the Windows version of ArcInfo.
The format is an older, specialised bitmap format rather than a general-purpose image format. It is now rarely used and may not be recognised by modern image applications.
Open the file with ArcInfo on Microsoft Windows. Some image viewers may also support this legacy format, although common image viewers may not recognise it.
If ArcInfo does not recognise the file, the file may require the original ScanStudio or ArcInfo environment that created it.
If ArcInfo opens the file, use its image export or save options to create a more widely supported bitmap format.

The ADC file extension is associated with Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) and used for files that contain evaluator addition data.
Systems Management Server is legacy Microsoft Windows software. The ADC format is tied to that product and is not intended as a general interchange format or as a file for ordinary manual editing.
Open an ADC file with a compatible installation of Microsoft Systems Management Server on Microsoft Windows. The file is intended to be processed within the SMS environment, so it may not display meaningful content in a text editor or general file viewer.
Do not rename or edit the file unless the SMS documentation or an administrator specifically requires it.
There is no general-purpose conversion for an SMS evaluator addition file. Its data is used internally by Systems Management Server rather than exchanged as a document.
