Ever had an issue opening a file due to the type of extension it was. Not sure what program to load or open the unknown file with. Well hopefully these tips will help you in this process.
First I would suggest scanning the file for malware by using your antivirus software. Once you have verified that the file is clean and not an infected file double click. It is possible that Windows will open the program without any hiccup. But in the case it doesn't try these in the dialog box that opens Use the Web service to find the correct program. The result web page may not find a proper program to use to open the file. Try another file extension database like FILExt , which will allow you to enter the extension.
Another option is to use Google or Bing or any other search engine you prefer, simply search for open 'ext' replacing ext with the extension in question. Sometimes text files can be opened using notepad.
