The arma2profile file extension is associated with ArmA 2, a military simulation game developed by Bohemia Interactive Studio. An ARMA 2 profile file stores settings for the game and the player's profile.
The file belongs to the game's profile data rather than to the main game content. ArmA 2 loads the profile when the game starts and uses the stored settings during play.
This is a game-specific format for the Microsoft Windows version of ArmA 2.
On Microsoft Windows, start ArmA 2 and select or use the relevant player profile. The game normally loads the associated arma2profile file automatically.
A text editor can open the file for inspection because it contains configuration data, but editing it manually can make the profile unusable or cause settings to be ignored. Change settings from within the game when possible.
An arma2profile file has no standard conversion to another file format. Its contents are settings for ArmA 2, not a document or media file.
To transfer the settings, copy the profile file to the corresponding profile location on another ArmA 2 installation.
