What is a CAPS file

CAPS files mostly belong to CaptureServer by GoldGingko Software. CaptureServer is a software solution that lets you save online research materials like text, images and entire webpages for later viewing and cataloguing. All information is saved in an offline database with a .CAPS suffix.    

How to open a CAPS file

You need a suitable software like CaptureServer to open a CAPS file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your CAPS file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a CAPS file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
