What is an STH file

STH files mostly belong to WebSphere Application Server by IBM. An STH file is a stash containing the password of a keyring KYR file used by applications such as Domino email server and WebSphere Application Server. A keyring is a password-protected collection of private/public keys and certificates which allow the email server to securely communicate with its Notes email client. Domino uses the password in an STH file for unattended access to the keyring (KYR file). Chrome web browser uses a different type of STH file to save data. Another type of STH file contains a cross stitch design created with KG-Chart cross stitch design software for Windows.

How do you open STH files?

You need a suitable software like WebSphere Application Server to open an STH 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 STH file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a STH file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
