Have you ever had a file you didn’t know how to open? Did you try every viable program you had and then resorted to Google to figure out just what program you actually needed to get the darn thing open? Well now there is an easier way.

...

OpenWith.org is a comprehensive listing of file extensions and the free programs you can use to open them.

OpenWith.org provides detailed information about most file extension and links to free programs that can open and create each type of file. All of us at OpenWith.org have found ourselves helping our parents and friends open obscure file types time and time again, and decided that this information was best shared with everybody. 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.

Take a look around this site and you’ll be pleasantly surprised at the wonderful organization and layout. It’s one of the most helpful sites I’ve seen in a long time. The even have a desktop tool you can download to look at programs on your computer give you options for programs to use that you already have installed, as well as other options (and the links to download them).
