File extensions
are the power behind the program. Everything you do on a computer is directed by
the extension attached to it. No matter what it is, it has an extension. Your
computer reads the extension to know what to do with that file. Every program
has its own special extension. This is why you can click on a file stored in "My
Documents" and it will automatically open the proper software program. The last
3 letters of the file name, preceded by a period, is the extension (.exe).

Here is a screenshot of the "Folder
Options" settings that are located in your "control panel." This is where you
can view all of the file types registered with your machine. You should not edit
these unless you really know what you are doing - 'cause you can create a lot of
errors for you to work out later. But on the other hand, if you are getting the
error messages relating to "opens with" associations with documents or programs,
this can be a place to sort those out.
