What is a .UDS file?

A .UDS file is a type of computer file known as a Uniform Data System File. This kind of file is specifically created by a program called Sierra Generations. Sierra Generations is a software application that was designed to help people create and store information about their family trees. Within a .UDS file, you can find a variety of important details related to family history, such as the names of family members, important dates (like birthdays and anniversaries), and information about ancestors and descendants. This makes it a valuable tool for anyone interested in genealogy or preserving family history.

To open a .UDS file, you would typically use the Sierra Generations program since this software is specifically designed to work with .UDS files. However, it's important to note that Sierra Generations is no longer supported. This means that the company that created Sierra Generations is not providing updates, fixes, or customer support for the software anymore. This can make it difficult to use Sierra Generations with newer computers or operating systems.

If you have .UDS files but cannot use Sierra Generations, there is still a way to access your family tree data. TWR Computing offers services that can convert .UDS files into a different format. By converting the files, you can make the information inside them accessible with other programs or services that are currently supported and updated. This can be a helpful solution for anyone who has valuable family history stored in .UDS files but can no longer use the original Sierra Generations program to access it.
