What is a UNTITLED file?

UNTITLED files mostly belong to Microsoft Outlook. UNTITLED files are files that have been saved with a generic name. Their purpose depends on the application that created them.
When using an email or calendar program, such as Microsoft Outlook or Yahoo Mail, the file may store calendar events or email headers.

Example: An Outlook process may save a calendar event or email message header with this generic name.

Example: Yahoo Mail can create an untitled email file. For more details, visit Yahoo Mail.

Other programs may generate UNTITLED files when a proper filename is not assigned immediately.

Example: Adobe Photoshop may produce a PNG or JPG image file with this name.

Example: Adobe Acrobat Reader may save a new PDF file as untitled until it is named.

Sometimes, the file is a container for other data, like an OpenDocument file packaged in a ZIP format.

Example: OpenOffice might store such a document; check OpenOffice for support.

Example: A compression tool like WinRAR may label an archive as untitled; visit WinRAR for more info.

Example: Microsoft PowerPoint sometimes creates an unsaved presentation stored in a Microsoft Compound format. More information is available at Microsoft PowerPoint.
