Date updated: October 9, 2026
The 87 file extension is associated with Creo Elements/Pro, a computer-aided design and manufacturing application developed by PTC for Microsoft Windows. Creo Elements/Pro was formerly known as Pro/ENGINEER.
The 87 file stores versioned data used by the Creo Elements/Pro software. It is a supporting data file rather than a general-purpose interchange format, and is intended to be used with the related Creo Elements/Pro data.
Open the 87 file with Pro/ENGINEER or Creo Elements/Pro on Microsoft Windows. The file is normally handled as part of the associated CAD data by the application, rather than opened as an independent document.
If the software does not recognize the file when opened directly, open the related CAD data from within Creo Elements/Pro and allow the application to access its versioned data.
The 87 file is supporting versioned data rather than a general-purpose interchange format, so it is not normally converted independently.
When the associated data can be loaded in Creo Elements/Pro, use that application to save or export the relevant CAD data in one of its supported formats.
