    • "PK" indicates a zipped archive.
    • Readable XML/JSON suggests a configuration file.
    • Unreadable binary implies a proprietary format.
  3. Use the Original Software: The original program is usually required; try Microsoft Office, an ODE physics simulator, or ask the sender if uncertain.
