Why convert SQLITE to CSV?
CSV lets you open SQLite table data in Excel, LibreOffice Calc, or Google Sheets, and is the standard intermediate format when migrating data to another database or analytics tool. Unlike the binary .sqlite file, a .csv needs no special software to open.

Open the .sqlite file in SQLiteStudio, right-click the table you want to export, choose Export, and select CSV as the output format.

- If Excel shows garbled characters on Windows, import via Data > From Text/CSV and select UTF-8 encoding.
