What`s This File Type? tells you what a file is, and what program created it. All you have to do is right-click on the file, and select `Bloody Hell! What`s this File Type?` (other text available if you`re sensitive).

If you have a file extension and you have no idea which application it is for, try this search. If we list the software itself we`ll show it too.
Enter the file extension to find, with or without a leading period. e.g .doc, .fll, .rpp, .xml etc.

If more than one application matches, we`ll show you a list.

Some further general hints...

* If the extension has a number in it (e.g.,
.S25) and no entry comes up for that try again using the number "1"
or "01" (e.g., .S01). Often such files are part of a series and only
the lowest five or ten entries in the series will be in the
database.

* If the extension is all numbers and no entry
comes up try again with .000. Again, often such files are part of a
series.

* If the extension ends with an underscore (_)
and no entry comes up for the particular extension it`s likely that
the file is part of an install set and is a compressed version of a
file with the same first two characters (e.g., an .EXE file in a
compressed install set becomes .EX_).
