A speaker can make a guess now about an event that is already complete.
The idea
Combine the future of haber with a past participle: habrá salido means someone has probably left. The subject determines the auxiliary.
Examples
- Ana no contesta; habrá salido ya.Ana is not answering; she has probably already gone out.
- El suelo está mojado; habrá llovido durante la noche.The ground is wet; it probably rained during the night.
- No veo las llaves; las habré dejado en la oficina.I cannot see the keys; I must have left them at the office.
- Los vecinos habrán oído el ruido de anoche.The neighbours probably heard the noise last night.
- ¿Habrá recibido Luis nuestro mensaje?I wonder whether Luis has received our message.
- La tienda está cerrada; habrán cambiado el horario.The shop is closed; they have probably changed the opening hours.

Watch out
This form can also refer to completion before a future point; context distinguishes that meaning from a present conjecture about the past.
