TAX is a file format which stores filepaths, MD5 hashes and data sizes for files stored in TAC archives.<br>
The file is unused and can be found within the UWP build of the re-releases. It is likely a build product when building TACs.<br>

===Header===
The only data stored within the first 4 bytes of a TAX file is the number of entries.
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Offset !! Length !! Type !! Description

| 0x00 || 0x04 || uint32 || Entry Count

===Entries===
Each entry is defined in the following structure:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Offset !! Length !! Type !! Description
|-
| 0x00 || -- || string || Filepath
|-
| -- || 0x16 || uint8[16] || MD5 Hash (known as ContHashMD5)
