Description

An ACE file is a compressed file archive created by WinAce. The ACE format uses a proprietary compression algorithm, which provides more compression than standard ZIP compression. Since ACE files use proprietary compression, they can only be opened by WinAce, MacUnace, or other programs that support the ACE format.
