Record marked as obsolete and not updated for a long time.
The amu file extension is associated with Sony PictureGear Studio, photo-management software from Sony that was pre-installed on some Sony notebooks.
An amu file stores a photo album created in PictureGear Studio. It is used by the software to open and manage the album and its digital photos.
PictureGear Studio was designed for Microsoft Windows. The format is obsolete and is no longer commonly used.
On Microsoft Windows, open the amu file with PictureGear Studio. Konvertor for Microsoft Windows also supports this file type and may be used to view or access its contents.
To preserve the photographs, open the amu file in PictureGear Studio and export or save the individual photos in a standard image format, where the software provides that option.
The complete album, including its original arrangement, may not convert cleanly to another format. Konvertor can be tried for extracting or converting supported image content, but it is not a replacement for the original PictureGear Studio album.
