A file extension is a group of three or four characters that are added to the end of a file name, like .ddb. Extensions are used to tell Windows which programs can open a file. They also tell Windows what kind of file it is. Windows often choose a default program for each file extension, and when you double-click a file, the program starts up automatically. When you try to open a file that is linked to a program that is no longer on your computer, you may get an error.
