Add your AVIF files or folders
Drag in .avif files or point the app at a folder tree; it finds AVIF images recursively.

Why convert AVIF to PNG?
PNG is the right target when you need lossless quality or an alpha (transparency) channel — logos, screenshots, graphics, and anything you’ll edit further. Converting AVIF to PNG preserves detail that JPG would discard.
Since most installed Windows apps can’t open AVIF at all yet, a dedicated batch converter is usually the fastest way to turn a folder of AVIF files into PNGs you can actually use.
Safer than online AVIF converters
Searching for a "free online AVIF to PNG converter" means uploading your files to someone else's server — a real problem for confidential documents, personal photos, and any private archive. LegacyFileConverter runs entirely on your Windows PC: files are converted locally and never leave your machine. It also handles whole folders in one batch, which no upload-one-file-at-a-time website can do.
The free trial converts up to 25 files with every feature enabled — for most people that's the whole job. Larger archives are covered by a one-time $99 lifetime license. No subscription, no watermarks, no uploads.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free way to convert AVIF to PNG?
Yes. The free trial of LegacyFileConverter converts up to 25 files with full features — no signup, no watermarks. For unlimited conversions, a lifetime license is a one-time $99 (no subscription).
Is this an online converter? Do my files get uploaded?
No. LegacyFileConverter is a Windows desktop app — every conversion runs 100% locally on your PC. Nothing is uploaded, which matters for confidential documents and personal files that shouldn't be pasted into a random website.
Can I convert a whole folder of AVIF files at once?
Yes. Point LegacyFileConverter at a folder (it scans subfolders recursively), select PNG as the output, and it batch-converts every .avif file in one run.
Can this app convert more than just this one format?
Yes — that's the point. LegacyFileConverter handles 100+ legacy and modern formats in a single app: WordPerfect, Lotus 1-2-3, Quattro Pro, Microsoft Works, XPS, HEIC, Photoshop (PSD), TIFF, AVIF, and many more. One tool covers your whole mixed archive.
Does converting AVIF to PNG keep transparency?
Yes. PNG supports an alpha channel, so any transparency in the AVIF image is preserved in the PNG.
