## External Support Binaries
ENiGMA½ relies on various external binaries in order to perform common tasks such as processing file archives and extracting information from uploads/file imports, some legacy transfer protocols, etc.

:correct: Before using features such as the [File Base](../filebase/index.md) or [File Transfer Protocols](../configuration/file-transfer-protocols.md) it is highly recommended to install support binaries!
