What is UDF file?
The Universal Disk File File (UDF) is a type of proprietary file format developed by Microsoft. It was primarily used by the Windows operating system for its storage and access from 1980 to 1995. The UDF file extension is widely used in computer hardware, especially in older computers that use floppy disks and CD-ROMs. In current computing, the UDF file extension is not often used because of the limitations on its compatibility with modern operating systems. The UDF file extension was created as a standardized way of storing information on diskette media back when floppy disks were still popularly used - 1980s. The UDF format had several advantages over some other commonly-used formats like .floppy or .wim files, but these disadvantages make it less important today.
