File Extension List

New applications are always being developed and it is important for our personal computer to know how to tell what kind of file it is accessing. That is exactly what a file extension is for!

The data needed to select which application to use to access a file is learned by examining the files extension. Data about the format and type of information carried within a file is indicated by a file extension. Some of the most common file extensions include .exe for executables, .mp3 for audio, and .txt for plain text. You may already be familiar with these general extensions but with the ever developing library of applications and operating systems there are much more that you may have never discovered.
