Find File Extensions Easily

 

I have, many times. If you do come across a file with an extension that your computer doesn’t know how to open, then a handy website; http://www.dotwhat.net/ can help and advise.

You can choose to use the Windows built-in web service to find the mysterious file extension, but chances are that you won’t be successful. Using the website above will enable you to find out those weird and wonderful file extensions that some people use now and again.

Dotwhat.net uses a huge database of file extension information, mainly Microsoft Windows (Including Windows Vista), Apple Macintosh and Linux operating systems. I find it useful every now and again. I hope you do too.
