Have a file you don’t know how to open? Think you need an expensive piece of software to open it? Chances are there is a great free program that’s just as good as the expensive one!

OpenWith.org provides detailed information about most file extension and links to free programs that can open and create each type of file.

There are plenty of great programs out there that will cost you hundreds of dollars to do what you need. What you probably don’t know is that there is usually free software that is just as good. You just don’t know about it.

They also have a download which adds an extension to your right click context menu.

If you need to know how to open a particular file, simply right click and select How do I open this?
