Find free programs for unknown file types

Ever had a file that you couldn't open? If you don't have a program that will run a particular file type, you're left with trying to find something yourself.

OpenWith. org is a great little tool that searches for free software you can download to open these problematic files. Once installed, if you right-click on a file you'll notice a new line on the menu, "OpenWith.

org - How do I Open This? ". Click that and the application opens and searches for a suitable application. You need to be connected to the internet to use it, but it's fast and will often give you a range of results.

We tested it with a broad range of file extensions, and it's not infallible. For example, the . KMZ extension for Google Earth files came up with no results.

When this happens, you're given three links to search for your extension on Google, Live Search or Yahoo.

While it's not totally comprehensive, OpenWith.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
