What is a CM0012 file?

CM0012 files mostly belong to CCleaner. CCleaner uses files with the CM0012 extension as internal Device ID files. Some sources also refer to them as camera configuration files.
These files store key configuration details that help the software identify a device and manage system settings efficiently.

• Function: They keep internal data about the device’s identity or camera settings.
• Usage: The file is not meant for manual editing but is vital for proper software operation.

If you need to view the file, try opening it in a plain text editor if the data appears legible; if not, use a hex editor to inspect the binary structure.
