Files with alpha file extension are related to the Gimp (also known as GNU Image Manipulation Program), a software for various platforms that allows users to create and picture images.

An alpha file stores some kind of data used by Gimp.

The *.alpha files are used for internal purposes of Gimp.

How to convert:

As far as we know, this .alpha file type can't be converted to any other file format. This is usually the case of system, configuration, temporary, or data files containing data exclusive to only one software and used for its own purposes. Also some proprietary or closed file formats cannot be converted to more common file types in order to protect the intellectual property of the developer, which is for example the case of some DRM-protected multimedia files.
