The following is a list of some of the
most popular "file extensions"
you will see on your computer and or receive in an email... File Extensions tell the computer the
specific type of "file" something is... Note if any file extension has an
"x" at the end of it, it is an indication it was done in one of the
Office 2007, 2010, 2013 programs... (ie.e docx; xlsx, pptx)
