Saved file created by Datel's Action Replay MAX, a PlayStation 2 (PS2) program used for applying cheats to PS2 games and creating PS2 saves; contains the saved state of a PS2 video game; can be saved to a hard drive or transferred to a PC using a USB flash drive.

MAX files can be opened directly on the PlayStation 2 using the Memory Manager on the PS2 Action Replay MAX disc.

A MAX file is a scanned document created by early versions of ScanSoft PaperPort, a document management and scanning application. It contains an image of a document captured with a scanner, such as letters, receipts, or forms, and may include annotations. PaperPort stores scanned pages in MAX files, allowing users to organize, view, and manage them within the program's document workspace.

MAX files are saved in a proprietary image format used by early versions of PaperPort in the 1990s and 2000s, such as versions 7, 8, and 9. It was commonly used by home users and businesses to organize scanned documents, but the format is now considered legacy, as newer versions of PaperPort typically save documents in the .PDF format.

NOTA: PaperPort was originally developed by Visioneer. The company became ScanSoft in 1999, which later became Nuance Communications, then Kofax, and is now part of Tungsten Automation.

You can open a MAX file with compatible versions of PaperPort, such as 7, 8, and 9. However, these versions are no longer developed.
