fdf file extensions
Friday, September 26, 2003 by kdmorris | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
A lot of the files I've downloaded lately end with .fdf. Can someone tell me what program I need to open these files? Thanks! Karen

@ China
Karen- go to control panel/folder options/file types and scroll down to WBA ext. What is it set to 'open with'?

The FDF file extension does not show up in my file extensions list, so I suppose I uninstalled it correctly. Do you have any idea why Windows would assign it or if there might be a setting somewhere I could change to correct it? I can't believe I'm the only one having this problem

Hey, I must have been writing while you were. WBA file extensions open with WindowBlinds.

Is a windowblind skin download one of the files that came up FDF?
...and was it that ext before you unzipped it?

Yes, in fact, the WindowBlind program had it and I renamed it excluding the FDF extension, which is not recommended, but it worked.

I've downloaded several cursorXP skins, and all of them have it.

I unzip with Winzip. Is there something better?

Wow..I think you might have entered into the twilight zone 
Download another WB skin, unzip it and right click and change 'always open this file type with' and click OK. Download another one and see if it works.
Do the same thing before you unzip the file just in case it is that (point to winzip exe)...although winzip should be ok. Might want to try 'Object Zip' in SDC

Okay, I just downloaded a windowblind skin. It was not zipped and when I clicked to open it, I received the error message:
"Windows cannot open this file. To open this file, Windows needs to know what program created it..."
"Windows cannot open this file. To open this file, Windows needs to know what program created it..."
