What is a BTN file?

BTN files mostly belong to Samsung Smart TV. BTN files are specialized files that hold button configuration data. They are most often zipped XML application buttons used in Samsung Smart TV systems, where the file contains compressed XML data that defines how a button looks and behaves.
When used in CLO applications, a BTN file holds data for a CLO 3D garment button that manages details in a virtual clothing design.

CLO 3D Garment Button: In CLO software, the file stores configuration details for a garment button used in 3D modeling. More information is available at the CLO3D website.
